Also, Twitter is not where people go to be nice. Twitter incentivizes snarky, disparaging, curt behavior because (a) it limits message length to an extent where nice speech doesn't have a place (b) saying nice things gets you likes while saying not-nice things gets you retweets, and retweets are more highly valued by the algorithm.
Its strength is freshness and volume, but I guess these can be achieved without Twitter if you have a strong web crawling infrastructure? Also, the current generation of LLM is not really capable of exploiting minute-level freshness... at least for now.
