I wasn't able to follow the significance of Twitter in my early days, but I made an account a year ago, mainly to get updates on certain things. Hell no to the news though, I have zero interest in that because of the monetary alignment of the spokespersons involved. All the parties tend to align stories to fit their own interest, that's the whole game.

So Twitter as I've seen it nowadays, doesn't matter if it's a wholesome post or someone announcing they got married, there are pages that exist just to ridicule it, to create some demonizing narrative around it, all for attention. The monetary value from that kind of engagement is honestly mediocre, but people still do it. And if people actually knew that, you'd wonder why they still choose to do this bullshit.
But majority of people don't understand that, they just get on the train and follow whatever agenda is being pushed because three or four lines of a post is all we process anyway.
So for those people, I'd say just go scroll reels instead, get your dopamine from there. At least know how this Twitter space actually works before you let it shape what you think.
