say what you may but i never used twitter because you needed to login to lurk properly all this time anyways. moreover requiring mobile number, at first for specific regions but then for everyone, was a deal-breaker which kept me off, and for good reasons in the long run (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31510865 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31510865). i would like to think that i am not the only one not using the platform all this time to get my news. to be fair i do get shared some links to tweets but at least until this debacle you could read them without too much trouble.
