Does radio ring a bell?

Tell me how David letterman was wrong and I’ll tell you how you’re wrong. You got triggered by my comment and went through my post history. That’s pathetic

No, it doesn't. I asked you how Twitter with longer tweets and long-form video would be different from Facebook, which already has long posts and long-form video.

I am not watching your video as it would be a waste of my time, I have been extremely online since before the WWW existed. I did not get 'triggered' by your comment and have no interest in your post history, and have never interacted with you other that this one question above. You seem to be mixing me up with someone else, and/or imagine yourself to have psychic powers.

Under your logic, the internet never should have existed. In the video, bill gates says you can watch sports. Letterman says you can do that with television. Bill gates says you can watch it on demand. Letterman says you can do that with a tape recorder. And there isn’t really anything bill could say in that moment that letterman couldn’t have retorted. And you’re letterman and I’m bill. The answer is in the nuances and unfortunately it doesn’t sound very convincing. If Facebook offers longform video, why does everyone use YouTube? If they offer longform text then why does everyone use sub stack? The difference between Facebook and twitter is that Facebook sucks. Twitter has unfragmented leadership, bureaucratic agility, and a cleaner and more straightforward monetization scheme which will lead to vastly fewer bots and spam. It also doesn’t censor people for trivial bullshit. Overall it’s much more fit and will threaten not only Facebook but YouTube, substack and others.

Ranting in walls of text is not an effective way to communicate. Please get help.

You are a pathetic loser. Why don’t you follow the way of adolf hitler and shoot yourself
