    Yeah it’s hit a point where I don’t even click on Twitter links anymore. If I wanted to see a bunch of bigots pushed to top of every single popular tweet I’d just use gab

      it’s kind of amazing just how true it is that anybody with a blue checkmark is basically a reactionary now. i have never seen someone sporting the mark with good takes anywhere on the site since it became cringe to have one, so the effect of promoting their replies is making the site completely unusable if you aren’t a sickeningly hateful person

        it’s so bad. i literally will just go and find an alternative link to something to avoid it and have asked my friends to stop sending me tweets. i deleted both accounts a few months ago and I feel like I left at the perfect time
