That was the one action I took on Twitter after creating an account before my account got banned.
I needed to create an account to check a local source for updates. So I did. I also decided to look around on Twitter to see what I was "missing". Saw a bunch of Musk stuff and instantly knew I didn't want to see any of it. So I blocked him.
In a few weeks, when I clicked a Twitter link, it said my account had been banned for suspicious activity. It had a secure password and this was its second log-in ever (no posts, comments, reactions, etc).
