I logged in just to reply to this because I was one who generally doesn't like social media and thought of Twitter as just a proprietary version of RSS.

But I had to do some promotion for work and created an account and got hooked in. There is no doubt a lot of junk and the trending stuff tends to be sports and politics, but just like Reddit there is a lot of cool stuff there if you wander off the beaten path.

Things like the #pico8 https://twitter.com/hashtag/pico8 where people are posting simple pico8 patterns or As the Film Ends https://twitter.com/endingsummary a bot which posts final sentences from Wikipedia film plot summaries, are just cool.

I hope the service can endure in some form so oddball stuff like this will remain.
