While we're talking about Twitter, here's the slightly unconventional way I use it: A few months ago I wrote a little tool to query and delete tweets and likes older than a specified amount of days from my account[1]. I deleted my account with ~14k tweets (because the tool couldn't handle that) and now I trim my new account every few weeks. I barely use the timeline anymore but I do have some mutual followers that I check in on every once in a while which is kinda relaxing.
Fun fact: deleting and re-creating your account is the recommended way to bulk-delete all of your tweets in the Twitter manual[2].
