Okay this is probably the last official message regarding me quitting, like I was logged out and everything before this, but I've changed my mind on a few things that I've said in my old posts.
          
          For readers-only (that is, people that don't check my announcements), I'll publish one last chapter on both of my fics for them so that they're aware of my platform change.
          
          And now that I'm inactive on this platform, I've decided I don't really want to interact with anybody socially. Like, this is the end of?? A chapter??? Well I really don't want to say it's a 'chapter' because my time on Wattpad was so significant to me, and it was a huge defining point for me. More like a book in an anthology that's ended. What I'm trying to say is that I want to move on from Wattpad and even though I have tried to talk to people, I've never managed to send a single message because my mental/social state is not the same as it was when I first met some of my closest mutuals here. It's led me to realise that if I want to leave Wattpad in the past, I should probably branch away from the good friends I made on here—in short, I do not want to associate with people from Wattpad anymore (and I'm not saying this in a curt, mean way, I say this with a heavy heart!!).
          
          PS. Lillian is exempt from this as discussions for TYG hold priority. Logging off now; see you when A.L and Y.T.Y updates are out! <3

As a final note, do not take your eyes off our world. Wars are everywhere. The U.S. is waging war on Iran; Afghanistan and Pakistan are at war; Russia is still invading Ukraine; ICE is still detaining immigrants; the U.S. will not leave Venezuela, Mexico or Haiti alone, and there's still criminal violence (especially in Mexico); Black Lives Matter; Armenia and Azerbaijan are still locked in conflict; all eyes on The Democratic Republic of Congo, Sudan, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Taiwan, Chile, Syria, Yemen, Turkey, Libya, Lebanon, Myanmar, Central African Republic, Ethiopia, and Somalia. Educate yourselves.

This announcement has been coming for a while; only now am I giving it proper attention. 
          
          I am quitting Wattpad.
          
          Shock, yeah, I know, I used to spend every waking moment on this platform. With the rise of recent quitters, though, my opinion of this 'writing' platform has changed. People raised valid points. This app is more like a barely thriving social hangout. There's drama in the announcements whereever you lurk. No interactions with stories take place. The only writing that ever gets exposure is the glorified mafia or werewolf dark romance, the same copy-and-paste plot that you see everywhere. Hard work and talent on original stories or fanfics is shoved to the side. It's corny. And you know what? I hate the algorithm of this app. You should write for passion, but Wattpad puts leaderboards and achievements on everything, letting other stories gain more traction. You're only given a chance if your stories look pretty, and even for people that have been here for years, they're ignored for the freshly made 'cute' accounts that are the same as any other account on this app. Writing app, mind you. Not to mention the ads and premium. This is a feeding ground for corporate investors, it's disgusting.
          
          For my mental health, I'm taking a step away from this place. I met some lovely friends on this platform which I'll be thanking dearly in the replies. However, if I do not have any of your socials, I will not be contacting you. Even if I do have a social of yours, I might interact very little since I am now indifferent with Wattpad. I never meant to grow such a large following/fanbase. The attention makes me feel icky, especially with how people only follow me because of my themes or stuff.
          
          For genuine readers, I'm not quitting writing. I'm moving to AO3, since their platform is more suited to what I'm looking for. No more updates will be posted here. Thank you for reading.
          
          I hope all of you do well without me. Thank you for sticking around with Boredom. <3
