I thought it was a great idea for official statements. Kind of like a new type of RSS feed.
Local transport companies can advertise delays, meteorology organisations can advertise natural disasters, police can post active missing person alerts, etc.
But it seems like it is just vapid narcissists thinking other people give a shit about their random thoughts.
I agree. I followed a couple of theaters, music venues, and bars to see what events were coming up and when happy hour was. I never understood the idea of following people just to hear what they were thinking every 15 seconds.

Why does an RSS feed need a “new type” tho? Normal RSS can be hosted by anyone and can be read on so many different readers…
Why wasn’t RSS as popular as the original Twitter?
I’m not sure what the answer is, but I suspect it’s the same answer.
RSS is in no way simple to regular normies.
