Yeah I was having a shower after left my comment and thought, oh man, Twitter is a terrible counter example of performance. What do you think of that situation?

I don't really have an opinion it and I haven't been following the changes there very closely. From my personal point of view I haven't noticed much of a change but perhaps I'm not the most typical twitter user to begin with. The niche section of it that I hang in has pretty much left unchanged.

I liked what he said of it in the beginning about how in a well-balanced social media platform the left and the right should be equally unsatisfied but that doesn't seem to have been the case here as it seems to be almost exclusively the left that's abandoning the platform. I'm definitely noticing a strong right-wing bias in the recommended content that occasionally finds it's way into my non-political feed there.
