I miss when we were told to keep your identity a secret online. The modern internet is boring because everyone is scared of being ostracized for making jokes and speaking their mind.
same
you can read tweets without having an account, if there's specific people you find fun or a dev you want updates from
There's very little effort in having an account if you're going to do that. Just follow those people and don't follow the ones making/retweeting normalfag memes/fake news/moral outrage
But I feel bad for the kids who don't fit in in real life what with the normification of the internet.
what is the purpose in having an account? Keeping up with people is EZ if you dont have one
Because you don't have to remember every person you want to keep up with, and can interact with them/others who like them if you have one.
right but twitter interactions are shit by design
Depends on what you're after. If you want long form nuanced discussion then yeah it sucks, but that's why I said it sucks for politics.
140 characters is only good for smalltalk and platitudes, so you either have a long string of tweets to discuss one thing, or you use another service
nuance exists outside of politics
Same reason to have a youtube account. I *could* just remember every person I want to watch the videos of, or I could just make an account
They doubled it to 280. Still not amazing, but much better. I only started using it at the start of this year. Like I said, just don't take it seriously. If you're only after serious discussion, then yeah look elsewhere
they doubled it for everyone? Because they initially only did it for the privileged elite <:VeRiFiEd:463064374236413962> 's
also you can have full, nuanced replies on YT, you just might run into an idiot
Yeah, they did for everyone.
well that's at least a little better

Aug 4 is going to be insanity
I thinking someone might die
That one punch man proud boy could have killed that antifa guy
lets hope for the best
Didn't that antifa guy get his skull caved in and brain damage from that punch?
probably
he went rigid
sign of brain damage
I hope that there's no serious violence but if there is, I'd put my money on the Proud Boys
I could see someone getting grievously injured, but dying is a pretty remote possibility given the lack of effective weapons and immediacy of first responders.
There's always the chance of some lunatic bringing a lethal weapon of course, like a gun or IED.
But mostly this is fists and placard sticks.
At the end of the day people are pretty fragile. People die from being punched in the head all the time, and lethal weapons can be anything from a fruit knife to a rock you found on the street.
that punch could have been lethal
