I cant think of anything remotely in twitters caliber where the public of the world can go to freely gossip with one another. Scientists, authors, journalists, techies.. a huge amount of really smart creative people are on this platform sharing their lives, cool things they find, & discussing topics & current affairs. I can roll up to any given conversation and join it. I cant think of anything that comes remotely, no where near as serving as effectively as the public square of the world as twitter. Dinging it because it only has x% would be modestly interesting to engage in of there was anything even faintly as connective, populated, & open to the world. There is not. Remarking that some people have outsized presence mirrors the real world: to expect the world engages in a public square exactly the same way as one another is absurd & a discredit.
