    I’ve never used Twitter, but I’ve heard that it’s just a porn site nowadays. Is that accurate?

        Does the NAZI porn involve blond blue-eyed Frauleins in skimpy leather gear with wipps dominating willing slaves?

        Asking for a friend.

      No. There are still a lot of serious journalists on it. It is still a very important media for journalists to quickly share information.

      But the porn&hate bots and the uncontrolled trolls make it unbearable. It has always been rough on twitter, but it has become an utter shitshow.

        Also the entire games industry is still on it and the move to Bluesky or mastadon ended in a stalemate. It’s the only online place outside of invite only discord servers where you can network with fellow game devs.

        My main issue with the serious journalism is that there’s apparently no way to sort a feed by time/latest date anymore… what is the point of seeing a random assortment of news from any number of years? Maybe it looks different if you log in, but it used to be my main source of local news & weather before.
