Twitter wasn’t just software or visible leadership (for better or worse) but an entire important slice of Internet history.

    Ive been using BlueSky and it’s a damn good alternative to Twitter. In fact, it captures what early Twitter felt like

      Alternative, certainly, that’s what they aimed for. But nothing can replace Twitter (I do not care about it, by the way) but living through Twitter from year one until about ten years ago was like living in the sixties. It was a whole thing, a vibe, an atmosphere that can’t be replaced. There will be some new paradigm that will take over. I don’t say it will be VR or AR, or even AI-related, but it will be something different. On the other hand, AI will surely have an effect on what comes next.
