Twitter resurgence? Is there one? I am basically turned off Twitter far more than I am Facebook at the moment. The signal to noise ratio there has tilted FAR into the red zone of late. The proliferation of bots, and the ability for anyone with a pulse and a stupid meme graphic to plaster them into any conversation has just killed the conversational or learning capacity of that platform for me.
- foxylad 9y agoI'd love to get off both Twitter and Facebook, but that network effect... I went and had a look at Vero, but it doesn't allow posting text, only associated with an image, movie, link or book. I checked how Diaspora was going, but the most popular pods have 2K users, and there are no pods in NZ or even Australia. I guess I should get off my chuff and set up a New Zealand pod, but life is full enough already without taking that on. Maybe we should all go back to blogging.
- maskedinvader 9y agoah the network effect. Same reason im still on fb. Diaspora is brilliant but I feel its never going to capture the imagination of the general public. Maybe we should all go back to blogging. - if only, sigh I get more and more depressed browsing my fb newsfeed (which I mostly do when I am taking a shit and run out of things to read)
