- The author habitually checks Twitter despite its decline in quality since Elon Musk's takeover.
- Musk's changes, including removing verified status and introducing paid engagement, have worsened the platform.
- Twitter now features clickbait, extreme political views, and explicit content, driving many users away.
- Despite disliking Twitter, the author remains due to work needs and addiction to endless scrolling.
- Twitter's unique immediacy and lack of a better competitor keep the author engaged, despite its flaws.
- The author hopes for a superior platform to replace Twitter but acknowledges the difficulty in leaving.
