- spurgu 5y agoYeah it's one of its problems. It creates a ton of shitty posts, not citing sources, not explaining standpoints ("threads" are horrible). It encourages low quality sensational posts. Or funny jokes. That's been my experience at least.
- stevofolife 5y agoIt also encourages you to be more concise, clear and mindful of what you want to say. The problem you outlined stems from the posters and not the platform.
- kortilla 5y agoThat’s only useful if you have really simple thoughts with no nuance to express.
- spurgu 5y agoYeah. I mean sure, you can have really deep thoughts, elegantly condensed into a couple of short sentences, but when you're eventually required to clarify something for one reason or another things are gonna get messy.
- stevofolife 5y agoThen you should write a blog post, not a tweet.
