But it's a house of cards

2018-08-18 17:44:05 UTC  

problem now is that old ppl are addicted to social media

2018-08-18 17:44:05 UTC  

Twitter is dying right in front of our eyes

2018-08-18 17:44:24 UTC  

yeah my parents are hooked

2018-08-18 17:44:26 UTC  

Twitter will get replaced

2018-08-18 17:44:27 UTC  

It reached peak at least

2018-08-18 17:44:33 UTC  

And it is, really

2018-08-18 17:45:15 UTC  

I think Platforms like discord are taking away from traditional social media

2018-08-18 17:45:16 UTC  

IMHO the fate of twitter is sad to me because i consider it the only tolerable form of social media (in concept)

2018-08-18 17:45:34 UTC  

It's basically a real time forum

2018-08-18 17:45:37 UTC  

hence it's the only one i ever had

2018-08-18 17:45:57 UTC  

are all the kids on discord now, or just us?

2018-08-18 17:46:24 UTC  

in essence, twitter works very much like IRC if you think about it

2018-08-18 17:49:25 UTC  

Not really. Irc is built around conversations. Twitter is built around headlines and announcements

2018-08-18 17:49:49 UTC  

Twitters format is not set up for lengthy communication. The post limits and formatting work against that

2018-08-18 17:50:03 UTC  

Yeah, IRC never had a post length limit

2018-08-18 17:50:18 UTC  

Nor did it show conversations in fucked up segments

2018-08-18 17:50:45 UTC  

Imagine if the retweet/reblog system only worked if you enabled the specific entry to be retweeted/reblogged.

2018-08-18 17:50:48 UTC  

i mean the inner workings, e.g: hashtags is euphemism for a chatroom

2018-08-18 17:51:03 UTC  

It would have to be a new service altogether.

2018-08-18 17:51:06 UTC  

It's just content tagging

2018-08-18 17:51:24 UTC  

Other social media sites also had it, or implemented it after

2018-08-18 17:51:36 UTC  

Tbh MySpace was better, as shit as it was

2018-08-18 17:51:55 UTC  

There were a bunch of chat rooms you could enter in and debate people, and if you weren't into that you didn't touch it

2018-08-18 17:52:01 UTC  

Perfect

2018-08-18 17:52:57 UTC  

Now people shit where they eat and then complain about the quality of their food

2018-08-18 17:53:40 UTC  

they post pics from parties they go to after calling in sick and their bosses see it

2018-08-18 17:54:50 UTC  

or they post how they are committing a crime lmao

2018-08-18 17:54:57 UTC  

lol

2018-08-18 17:54:59 UTC  

i love those

2018-08-18 17:55:10 UTC  

Not just that

2018-08-18 17:55:36 UTC  

They turn everything into a political issue because srsbsns talk and shitposting/entertainment are in the same space

2018-08-18 17:56:03 UTC  

There's not really a guaranteed "recreational twitter"

2018-08-18 17:56:18 UTC  

Whereas Facebook you only have to deal with friends and family

2018-08-18 17:56:35 UTC  

And MySpace you'd just hop out of religion and philosophy, and into vidya or movies

2018-08-18 17:57:20 UTC  

huwait peepo smh
154k RT 354k Likes

People being fired for political opinions was handled by society as poor as you could possibly imagine

2018-08-18 17:57:33 UTC  

Even if you don't post something you mean as rude or offensive some bluecheck asshole can make a mountain out of a molehill and now you're fucked

2018-08-18 17:57:34 UTC  

Every shitty precedent was set.

2018-08-18 17:57:37 UTC  

Absolutely

2018-08-18 17:57:40 UTC  

People are worms.
