I just don't see the point of Twitter, what would be the point of a replacement? Honestly, how has the sharing of 140 char thoughts changed the world?

If the point is to amass followers, then you are using it for marketing a product of some kind? How successful is that?

I understand there was a spring uprising of free speech in some places that haven't had much of that. Did that really change things for the better long term in those places?

It just sounds like millions of people shouting things in an echo chamber.

I am not trolling, I really don't understand the medium or the value. What would you miss by not using it?
