I'm actually quite pleased Twitter is going to shit, it offers nothing to humanity, it shows the most divisive of opinions to drive engagement, and despite this, it's become a quasi-official way of making a public statement, with Tweets being quoted even when barely related to the story at hand.
It's a garbage site, and has been for a very long time, and I'm so very glad it's on the way out.
2008-2014, I think it had value as a public square where journalists of all stripes really engaged. Now it's a cesspool. Anyone still hanging out at the nazi bar should really stop and think about the ramifications.
