Twitter seems to be doing alright. I was a massive skeptic but a year on if I want to see live comments on something mainstream, it's 100% the only place to go.

Twitter seems to be doing alright. I was a massive skeptic but a year on if I want to see live comments on something mainstream, it's 100% the only place to go. Tumblr is now owned by Automattic - I've no idea how well it's doing but I'm 99% sure that's because I'm no longer an angsty teenager and Tumblr was the place to be for that.
- asadotzler 3y agoTwitter has gone completely to shit. My account was over 13 years old when I deleted it recently. The comments under any interesting post are dominated by blue check losers paying to get their idiot hot takes pushed to the top of the queue. It's a total shit show enough that I've given up 100% on posting and commenting and now only read occasionally with Blue Blocker active and doing my best to scroll down past the literal Nazis and Musk sycophants to replies from reasonable human beings. I go to Twitter like I go to the liquor store in an unfamiliar neighborhood, cautious, and in and out as quickly as I can.
