I personally use it for manga and following japanese artists who seem to post art and have discussions there
I made a Twitter account in like 2009, in order to follow breaking hockey trades and free agent signings.
Then I realized that these are all posted to hockey forums at ludicrous speed, so I just stayed on the hockey forums.
There must be people refreshing Twitter just to be first to repost stuff to other social media sites for clout. It’s part of what makes Twitter so gross.
Also, what Twitter has done to ‘journalism’ where 99/100 ‘journalistic articles’ are just writing about what the author read on Twitter that day. It’s all just so gross to me.
Sorry, I rambled. I meant to just agree that I also signed up for Twitter for a niche interest. Although I quickly dropped it again, way before all the activism took over the platform and people started losing their jobs over tweets they liked or made.
Your point about articles that are just reposts of what the journalist read that day hits home so hard.
At what point did it become generally acceptable to throw some incredibly bland commentary along with embedded tweets or reddit posts and call it an article?
