[Tweeters] Neah Bay trip report and rare bird alert

[Tom Benedict]

I missed the original post. Is there a proposal to shut down Tweeters? Is traffic insufficient these days to support it? Are posters weary of having to post their sightings to multiple places? What’s behind this?

Some of us, perhaps many of us, do not like to use Meta/Facebook products, due to privacy and other known concerns about Facebook, and don’t want unnecessary apps on our phones. Personally, the more places I have to check for information, the less information I find because I won’t spend my time checking multiple apps and web sites.
