This exactly. I once tried the twitter game, I thought it was important to have a big following or say clever things, whatever.

I was lightly burned by a tweet (of my own authoring) once, and I thought "I make $XYZ per year, twitter pays me nothing, this joke tweet caused me a lot of stress, the odds that being on twitter will get me cancelled will cost me $XYZ are non-zero and I don't control them"

Then I deleted all my tweets and my twitter account (8 years ago) and life has been really nice without it!
