I did not see the parent comment and throwaway. It’s actually a valid insight that there are some alignment between the two platforms. Both appeal to the lower forms of entertainment. In a way they appeal to the same eyeballs. People looking to waste time with little long term benefit. They are both “quick fix” dopamine platforms.
So actually this comment is insightful. Is it cynical? Absolutely. But being cynical is sometimes a very valuable trait to have when picking winners and losers.
Having a similar type of user may actually allow twitter to unlock more potential than another potential acquirer with a more informed or high brow audience.
