I used to interact with twitter at least a dozen times a day. Probably double that, really.

Since January it’s been 0 times a day.

Oh well.

I don't miss much about it. My heart goes out to people who had communities on there that were important to them. Like many things, this hit minorities the hardest.

Unfortunately, "Rich asshole buys thing and screws minorities" is a daily occurrence. (Although rarely at this scale.)

What exactly did you do on there? I mean to ask what you found pleasurable or useful about it.

I'm not OP, but with my follow list it was great for learning little bits over the course of the day. Astronomy tidbit, history tidbit, anthropology tidbit. I also followed some pretty funny 280-character comedians, and participated in the odd hashtag game, but for the most part it was about learning things I didn't know.
