I just.. I could never comprehend twitter (or Mastadon, or bluesky for that matter).

The whole structure of the conversation feel like people shouting into an open auditorium. And everyone is shouting at once.

I just do not see the appeal.

I’m with you 100%. The Twitter product has always been a clunky pile of bullshit for me. But somehow it became the default public space and choice of celebrities, etc and I think that has been 98% of its appeal.

Yea. Used it for four things. To keep up to date with creators I like, to keep up to date with friends, to keep up to date with a bunch of webcomics and to randomly rant into the void when I felt like it.
