When I started using twitter, it was an internet place where I'd meet new people. Through events and stuff I then met around 2/3 of my followers and it became a bit more like Facebook for me.

My weird twitter account then became the primary vent for things I didn't directly want to share, but weird twitter got completely destroyed in the US election.

And now, this, feels a lot like twitter did for the first few years: something fresh and new, full of interesting exciting people. I like that.

@apexys Yea, I think the US elections had a HUGE part in destroying Twitter for me.

And I even participated in that. I couldn't stop sharing this horror trip.
