    Honestly the format is good for stuff like quick business headlines and rumors that you could use if you’re trading (basically free “squawk”, given that professional squawk services cost a lot). It’s also good to quickly spread the word during protests or similar.

    But I agree that all of that is still offset by the huge amount of smugness and “ratio” competitions.

      Yeah that’s a fair summary. It’s brands doing announcements and ads, and people being assholes. Why would I be interested in either?
