A Guide to Twitter
I totally failed to use Twitter in any reasonable way.<p>I used it for years, trying to follow interesting people or artists but in the end, it was just an amplified echo chamber of myself.<p>Everyday there was the shitstorm of the day. Absence of nuance was the norm (nuance is not prone to RTs, I believe).<p>Everyone there is trying to push its personal fight, which, while I generally agree with, is never the reason I come to Twitter. Yes I want the world to change about [society topic] but no, Twitter is just not the place for that.<p>In the end, I was mindlessly scrolling through rage and polarized opinions while I was coming to learn / love / occupy myself.<p>Maybe I did something wrong, maybe it was not for me.<p>I closed my account. I don’t miss it but each time I read an article like this I happen to think that maybe I missed something wonderful about Twitter.
