That's fair too, I feel it, that shit is whack. It took me awhile to find dope people to follow and just riff with, fuck all that clout shit. You can find subs doing similar too, its not a unique thing, but I just can't stand how many g*mers are constantly commenting on everything on reddit that I end up seeing, since it's less curated in a sense.

I guess I'm weak but I've always ended up engaging with the stupidest slap fight of the day when I was on twitter. The siren call of drama is way too powerful.
You can use twitter responsibly, but it's no secret that every element of the platform is tweaked to maximize engagement.
Absolutely, I use to do the same on reddit too, also fruitless and a waste of time and brain cells. One other really good thing about Twitter is the muted words option. Like if I see some discourse I don't give a fuck about i just mute the keywords and carry on. I try to not get sucked into the really bad shit, but I still drive by threads to drop a :PIGPOOPBALLS: if i think it warrants it but I also mute threads often if someone is chomping at the bit to rage online and it's not funny
