Jokes on you, no one ever DM'ed me anyway.

Really? What's your secret to avoiding the incessant only fans bots?

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I dunno, I guess the fact that I've never been very active on Twitter. I use it occasionally and reply to the odd thread, but I never even knew only fans bots was a thing there.

I've used Twitter off and on for a while to follow artists who post there, and my dms are full of only fans spam and crypto scams
