Twitter is less useable than ever before. Find me on IG, Bluesky and Gmail with the same username.

I am increasingly convinced that it's not twitter specifically.

The basic ~idea~ of social media, as it existed from about 2005-2015, is dead. The networks that were built on this idea (Reddit, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) are all in decay. What's doing fine, mostly, is the broadcast platforms like YouTube and TikTok, where a small minority of the userbase make content, and a large majority of the users only consume content.
