I used #Twitter to get information from a variety of sources using #Quacker, all the way until they decided to basically prevent non-registered users to browse the website. Now you literally have to login to access the tweets, or see any comments, which is ludicrous. It's not that generic public forum it used to be any longer and I don't understand how they are expecting to get any meaningful ad revenue there.
#Mastodon is gazillion times better, has a normal community, albeit with a smaller user base, but that is probably a plus, since you don't get so many weirdos.
