The key to enjoying Twitter is to unfollow anyone who is clearly only Tweeting engagement and follow bait all day.
It’s easy to spot. They all seem to follow the same pattern du jour, such as posting threads that feel like mad libs (“I talked to <number> people who are passionate about <topic>. What I learned was surprising! Here are the top five takeaways. 1/6” is popular right now)
- Existenceblinks 4y agoDon't know who to follow now honestly, it's all boring. My followings are pretty diverse.
- 0des 4y agoYou forgot to drench it in finger pointing up and high five emojis
- mattgreenrocks 4y agoMuch of Twitter is just people signaling to one another that they are relevant in what they say and how they say it. It is a tax on your brain for which you get little in return.
- 0des 4y agoMuch of life is social signaling in general.
- Existenceblinks 4y agoSadly true, tons of people wouldn't care less if it isn't opportunity involves. Because social animal is mostly passive. You don't show up? We don't look for you even if you have some potentials.
- rchaud 4y agoThese days anytime I see the "finger pointing down" emoji that tells me that there's a thread below, I unfollow. Straight away.
