Nothing has fundamentally changed but it has always mutated in very weird ways and still is. I've been on Twitter off and on since fall 2007. In the early 'fail whale' days they had a live stream that didn't move ridiculously fast(when it wasn't broken) of all tweets. It became a huge 'surveillance capitalism' data mining product that has had some issues around free speech and political bias meddling by the company and obviously the big media companies. The platform is plagued by bots and trolls, automated attack agents that are presumably programmed to append derogatory comments to tweets by unknown actors. Now the mysterious Musk is reorging the platform, maybe to emulate the 'WeChat' 'everything app' Chinese approach. Who knows...if it's free you are the product...
