On the other hand I think Twitter and these platforms are a net gain for Human connectivity and sharing of knowledge and expansion of interest. There are many things, including humor, events , people, technology, that I would have never discovered without the existence of many of these platforms. I’m someone who pushes for greater globalization and I believe the transfer of culture that Twitter provides is a good effort towards that.

I think a lot of the complaints towards Twitter is due to people not using the on-site tools to cater the site towards what they want. I find Twitter the most approachable platform in allowing the user to curate the content they want to see via blocking and muting alone. Out of all the Social Media platforms, if there’s something I really don’t want to see while still wanting to use the platform , Twitter is the best. All without having to make a single tweet in 2-3 years.
