In my case I’ve hated Harry Potter, skinny jeans and Tesla long before that became popular to do.

    It encourages hot takes over nuance, or awkward workarounds like replying to your own post a bunch of times if you actually have something to say.

    I still think it’s a terrible idea for something like that to be popular and have an important role in society, though its addition of images and video mitigate the problems a bit. I don’t know whether it significantly impacted the platform’s success and eventual sale price. $44B is a lot of money, so I can’t say it was a terrible decision from the perspective of its creators.
