While i appreciate the premise and absolutely agree with the author. The fact that it goes straight from, "I made a dumb tweet that people liked." to "it's an addiction" was a jarring transition.
This is one of those few times where more information would have made me get through it the first time without having to re-read, i felt like I missed something.
Not being too critical or anything; i appreciated the views expressed. Though the twitter logo is still visible at the bottom of the page.. so will our dear writer stick to this conviction i know not.

I.e., is peak Twitter just an kind of skinner box full of people with their brains turned off, echoing memes to each other in exchange for hits of dopamine, while ads play softly in the background?
