I find it pretty toxic tbh, there's always some sort of drama going on but occasionally I find some good things that are worth using twitter for

It can be, but isn't always. I'm a veteran infosec guy (since the mid-90's), and I have zero interest in the infosec twitter feed because all I ever hear about it from my colleagues is how laden it is with drama.

I keep connected, but just not on the specialized soap-box lists because I have so little interest in other peoples' pet peeves and incessant need to present themselves as superior.

It's also why I like HN and not Reddit. Baggage should always be discouraged.
