One thing that bugs me about people who claim that they grok this place but then still deem Twitter as superior is the ignorance of a few things:

* Twitter has a cultural head start.
* Twitter has a dedicated team focused on making you keep using their app (advertising, marketing, content curations)
* Twitter made it hard to build alternatives through cultural inroads (and Black people def helped with this, for better or for worse)

Because of that, yes, you'll find more people, content and info on there. That doesn't make it better (that's like saying BBC is the best news source when it's heavily biased towards the State and doesn't report in an empanicpatory fashion - like grassroots journalists). The difference between here and there is that WE actually own more of the means of production (or curation) and I think that overwhelms people who weren't expecting that. 

 @7f02ec12 I really have zilch of substance to add other than for the gamers out there, 

Fedi: Upstart indie basketball game :: Twitter : 2k Games

OR

Frictional Games : Immersive first person tension driven games :: Bethesda Studios: all the IPs they bought up along the way 

 @7f02ec12 It used to be that the new hot website would change every ~5 years. People just figured it out. But Twitter's been Twitter for so long, people don't know how to get out.
