I signed up to it from instagram to track my favorite epidemiologists and h5n1 only to discover it has no hashtag system to look up trending topics and most of my favorite epidemiologists aren't even on it. So it's worthless for even following COVID, avian flu, and probably every other news topic.

I thought it was explicitly anti-news and politics?

Ah well that would be why it's completely pointless to me. Since all science is politicized now, I guess there is no reason to use it.

Being attached to Instagram is really the only reason it took off imo. Of course all the normal Insta users are going to at least try it out because it's so "easy" to sign up.
