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 thought it was a great idea for official statements. Kind of like a new type of RSS feed.

Local transport companies can advertise delays, meteorology organisations can advertise natural disasters, police can post active missing person alerts, etc.

But it seems like it is just vapid narcissists thinking other people give a shit about their random thoughts.
