It’s absolutely not. I don’t follow anything political, neither Obama nor Trump. Among 1200+ people I follow are all from AI/ML/biotech/space research. Most of them are academics. I throughly enjoy my feed and it’s my go to place to stay up to date as well as some fun nerdy conversations. Tweeter is a hammer, use wisely.
I didn't say it ruined your discourse in your niche. I'm not saying Twitter can't be good to any people.
I'm saying that as a tool for public discussion, it is vile.
