Twitter was not bad because "hashtags this" or "trends that". Twitter was bad because:
1. Centralized.
2. They forced you to ID yourself with a phone number.
3. They hand your data to third party companies.
4. Most governments were using it to ID people saying bad things about them.
5. Ads and corporative campaigns.
@robots @vantablack actually twitter is bad because it won't deal with abuse at all and it became a toxic performative sensationalist quagmire that focused on trends and moments to the detriment of wholesome conversation
2 is a management decision, 3 and 4 are public information, 1 and 5 are merely side effects of the profit motive
