I try to use Twitter, but I need two accounts, one for Norwegian and one for English.
I also cannot tell Twitter that some of my post are probably most interesting for programmers, others for people living close to where I live.
etc
There was some hype a few years ago about how artificial limitations created "interestingness": Snapchat and Instagram and Twitter were held out as examples, and I guess this was around the time Yo (with the single "Yo" button) was released.
But personally, while I saw the benefits of Snap and Instagram I have newer seen any benefit of Twitters model.
And yet it stumbles on, driven by network effects years after first WhatsApp, then Telegram and Signal and Matrix have explored and found niches around almost everything Twitter could have been useful for.
