I noticed that any of my replies to tweets don't get any engagement. This is probably because the algorithm sorts by those that pay the monthly fee first, so my comment falls to bottom of the stack.

I'm not motivated to even respond for people asking for help, because they won't see it (for tweets with lots of replies).

Yeah, I realize that this will go away if I just pay the $8pm.

A very liberal friend of mine says that he only follows other liberal folks but is constantly being inundated with right wing conspiracy shit on Twitter in his feed or suggested tweets. It's gotten so bad that he's finally going to leave the platform (after I've been telling him to leave it for years).

Can't wait to see what happens during the election year...!
