I think Twitter has served as an enormous public good, a great connected space where all kinds of things were happening & many of them were pure & good & helpful & inspirational. It was a world of open possibilities & Twitter facilitated that.
It's obviously over. The new management has a totally different outlook.
You are welcome to try to heap scorn for emotional manipulation & selling hard the tragedy of this situation, but my god. It takes my breath away watching a once prized useful open space medium burn.
The losses are going to keep coming, stacking up higher & higher, and not a single thing coming down the pipe has promise hope or upside. Some of what we lose will genuinely hurt, cause real damage. And the zeitgeist being pisses all over, the loss of the open medium, is a major blow to the whole spirit of the online connected world project.
