I think Twitter (and to a lesser degree its derivatives like bluesky, threads, etc) did far more harm than Facebook. It played a major part in ruining journalism and politics to a degree that far outshadows any other social media platform.

The comparison goes something like this:

Twitter "ruined journalism" by giving lazy media companies a way to "track big stories" (i.e. a few thousand people comment about N and that's News, apparently.)

Facebook "ruined journalism" by virtue of users not bothering to read the news at all.

Both are horrible.

But, facts, "Journalism" was ruined by corporate interests decades ago.

Absolutely not. Facebook did far more damage than Twitter ever did.
