Just so you know.
There is a twitter account for Gimp Chat.
I believe it was set up by GnuTux,
back in 2010.

You mean the thing where the last post dates back to 2018 and says "Scum-bag Left Ringers are idiots !!!!"? Is it about Gimp or about politics? And who is behind it right now? Gnutux or Omega?

I've see that post and yes that is what I mean.
Not sure who's behind it now, or what direction it's going in, but it's there.

The account could have been hacked.

Don't think so.
It's more likely abandoned,
by whomever created it.
I see no real advantage to hacking an inactive twitter account,
but I could be wrong about that.

I don't Twitter, Wallace; do sometimes GAB but even that's not that often.

I hear ya Lyle.
I'm very rarely on twitter,
if at all.
It's only been recent,
that I find myself being funneled toward twitter.
