Reading that thread made me realise how low the signal to noise ratio is over on twitter.

90% of the replies scrolling down were rehashed versions of "can't believe they used Google meet"

Monetization of "hot takes" and baiting, true example of enshittification

Try blocking all bluechecks. After doing so is the first time in like a decade that Twitter has had good content for me.

Before, braindead or cloutchasing bluechecks were mixed in with the rest of us rabble. Hard to pick them out of the pack, you had to read their detritus with the rest of the comments.

Now they voluntarily self identify, and even better, their comments are lumped at the top. So block them all with a bot or just scroll down until there's no more blue checks and the comment quality jumps exponentially.

And “can’t believe how shitty the Twitter replies are” is any better?

Seemed like a pretty productive conversation to me. As a non-twitter regular I now know how to make things more bearable in the future thanks to this discussion.
