Additionally, reply threads in Twitter make no sense. I'll be following a discussion about sports, and there would be a random (bot? ad?) off-topic post every 4th or 5th reply. I can't help but see people who design social media algorithms to be complete sociopaths: they want to control people's communications and butt in with "recommendations" completely unwelcome, instead of just letting the participants drive the discussion themselves.
