Twitter has become unbearable to use for news. Every single submission from news stations to President Trump is filled with combo-replies from people. 1 dude will bombard the tweet, then a chick, then a different guy.

You need to scroll down at least 5 load-more's to see regular people tweets. It's a really terrible user experience that Twitter needs to solve.

- andai 10y agoAnd it was at this moment andai that realised, that YouTube comments are written by regular people.
- iamatworknow 10y ago"YouTube comments = garbage" is basically a meme now but I certainly find most general usage public internet comments, especially relating to politics, to be largely unreadable. That may come off as sounding elitist, but low effort opinion spamming is really not my cup of tea.
- ReverseCold 10y agoOh really? I've seen a lot of bot like activity
- andai 10y agoI meant (with a great sadness in my heart) that YouTube comments do indeed come from relatively ordinary members of the human species. I might be wrong, but I don't think we can simulate flame wars yet.
