It’s an unpopular opinion but I find it all funny too, for the reasons you described. The degree to which people are experiencing self-righteous outrage over twitter is in direct proportion to how histrionic and annoying their personas are. Twitter may have had some fine contributors, but I think it was a net negative on culture, and encouraged shallow thinking and moral grandstanding.

And there’s an upside. If the people threatening to leave actually do, it will likely make the platform better.

You are completely right but if not Twitter, it will be something else. There is real demand for these net negatives.

Indeed.

People talk about like it a critical major industry is about to go under.

It’s Twitter. If it goes under it’ll be missed as much as MySpace.
