Elon keeps saying that his goal is to make Twitter the source of truthful information but it's pretty obvious that the biggest cheerleaders on Twitter are not interested in truth, they're mostly interested in increasing their clout among the Twitterati. I guess that's another thing every good social media platform should try to avoid, constant navel gazing and meta-analysis of the platform itself because the goal should be to help people discover useful information instead of gaining followers and clout by meta-analysis of what is happening on the platform itself.
It's not boring enough.
Just go out in the real world to buy some groceries and you'll see how boring and mundane the whole experience is.
Big social media platforms are populated by 3B people so they should represent a similar experience, but NO! The content presented to you is not randomly picked from a sample of 3B, so you don't get in your feed a random Indian guy wishing happy birthday to his random grandma.
You get non-random content. Now the reason why you get non-random content is a bit contentious.
People who love to critique social media companies would say they have an hand in that and operate out of bad faith to optimize engagement, people who want to give them the benefit of the doubt would argue that humans are wired to pay particular attention to verbal fights, proper fights, train wrecks, bad news, drama and incendiary content in general. So in the latter case each and everyone of us trained the algorithm to show us incendiary content by paying attention to incendiary content in the past.
Maybe truth is in the middle.
