    I used Twitter for all my local updates - from what’s happening at city hall to live traffic and weather updates.

    What’s up with CEO’s messing with social media companies. Huffman and Musk seem to enjoy ruining good things :(

      Yeah I don’t understand it.

      I’m sure something else will come along, the public service sphere of Twitter is too important. What else can they do? Go back to sending out press statements and breaking news on the radio or TV? Something will come along and fill that gap.
