Yeah people just want an alternative to Twitter. As long as it does the primary function (tweet) and has the users, it will grow.

I loved Reddit and Twitter until they made it clear users were not the focus anymore. I’d never lock myself behind those systems again. I made that mistake twice. I use beautifully built 3rd party apps that were cut off at the kneecaps with no warning. I’m here to stay. For some, that meta data mine will be all they want / need, so good for them?
