      Could you elaborate on this? Especially since you received Exemplary tag so apparently many people agree with you a lot. I’d like to hear why would you delete it.

        well, to be honest i hoped someone smarter than me me would expound on the reasons Twitter sucks, but

        false sense of community, false sense of trends, extravagant noise, this is that, that is this, i am you and you are me (but not really), let's be meme-y, long-form terrible ui, tyranny of the minority, extreme echo chamber, unrepresentative representatives, bad sex, misunderstanding of reality, misrepresentation of reality, what is reality, echo chamber, bad chamber, bullet in chamber, fucking gross expectations, bad vibes, bad jibes, bad everything, wrong words many wrong words, supported by committee and...bad committee, ubiquitous-ness and the implications, expulsion of ignorance, expectations of ignorance and denial of ignorance, and some good information mostly drowned out by the bad, another multinational tool of ideas that emboldens all

        well, that was a freeform thought salad. Maybe those that agreed with me have something more intelligent to say.

        This is noise, but I don't see the exemplary tag for that comment. Is that something that might be theme dependent?

          I deleted the label, because it was clearly someone misusing it—"exemplary" is for high-quality comments that deserve highlighting, not just "I agree with this".

          I don't delete labels often, but I do sometimes in cases of blatant misuse, and will also remove that user's ability to apply any more labels in the future if they do it repeatedly.

            No worries, just wanted to make sure I wasn't running into a bug of sorts.

      This wouldn't do anything to the company itself and it's not even a frequently visited site with Alexa listing it out of the top half million websites.

      Do you have some reason why you'd choose this one?

    Facebook.

    It does everything worse than any other site it tried to replace or has replaced, it's created mass echo chambers, broken down discourse, and given a false soapbox to people who think they should be heard. I'm willing to wager that Facebook has had a net negative impact on society.

    This is a really low-effort thread that's unlikely to generate anything except one-word responses (as it was already doing). I'm going to remove it, but if you'd like to rewrite it in a way that would encourage people to go into more depth and explain the reasoning behind their answer so some actual discussions might happen, that would be more acceptable.

    I'm not a money-ologist or anything, but if I had the opportunity, I think I'd probably short Amazon, then nuke their website?
