Part of the reason I and many others love twitter is precisely because it retains a spark of that early internet forum style community, with pseudonymity for those who want it and "Real ID" for those who want to treat it like LinkedIn or Facebook or whatever. Awful suggestion.
- alpaca128 5y agoNow this surprises me. To me Twitter is the polar opposite to an oldschool internet forum: unmoderated, no structure, a post length limit that acts as hurdle to meaningful content, and a lack of any common interest between members. Twitter is the most toxic "mainstream" community I've ever seen.
