A eulogy for Twitter

I'm one of those exploring elsewhere. Twitter today feels even more dysfunctional as a company. The pursuit to become algo driven and Facebooky reached its limit for me with the new link previews which fundamentally transform the Twitter experience from being text based to visual. The problem though is that the entire timeline is now visual with a spammy marketing vibe because most people today use Twitter for sharing links, not specifically for photos. The resulting photos from link previews are not interesting for the most part and certainly don't convey the fun that a visual experience such as Ello conveys. Because Ello supports Markdown and text can live just fine there, I've personally made it my place to play and relax. I updated my Twitter bio to indicate that my tweets will become stale. I will still tweet now and then, minus my personality. Ello has been a relaxing experience for me, but I miss the in-the-now vibe of Twitter. I'll miss Twitter, but never really forget it.
