Twitter never excelled, for much of its history, at quality content. Instead, it was a bunch of nonsense 90% of the time.
That is proof the idea of quality isnt really the basis. People respond to the dumbest things.
Political discussions might be relevant but the most commented thing on X is when someone posts some else doing something completely stupid.
It's sad but I would 100% agree to this.
It isnt a platform.
YouTube became huge for cat videos. Quality content is not required for success online.
