More from Twitter
I've been a Twitter power user since 2008 or so. Long time.
I've watched it change from an impromptu conversation or watch party platform to a place for people to build their professional reputations and network.
2/ In many ways it's matured into a more effective professional platform than LinkedIn.
LinkedIn is (mostly) about collecting the professional contacts you've met.
Twitter is a place to meet new people.
That much hasn't
Facebook is where you learn you don't like a lot of the people you know. Twitter is where you learn to like people you don't know already.

3/ What also hasn't changed is its power for networking.
This is particularly useful if you break out of your echo chamber and talk, build relationships with people doing tangentially related things.
You're bricklaying and with patience it pays off.
Back of the napkin math - over the last year I've referred (or retained) $500k+ worth of business to contacts in my network.

4/ What has changed is a growing population of people being *intentional* about the use of Twitter for their professional lives.
Observations on what's working for them:
5/ They "Build in public" - sharing behind the scenes perspectives on whatever it is you're doing professionally.
What do people not know about what you do?
Stick within your expertise, with focus, where people see you are an authority - that’s where you grow a following.
What I’m trying to get at, is not just that Twitter’s decision allows us to see—in ways that have been obscured—how much control they have over content moderation—
but as @Elinor_Carmi points out “platforms don’t just moderate or filter “content”; they alter what registers to us and our social groups as “social” or as “experience.” https://t.co/GSByAOoDWg changed
I’m worried that the celebration of Twitter’s intervention on fascist rhetoric-however too little and too late- directs us to desire tech companies enforcement of liberal and democratic procedures rather than towards an investigation of
how they’ve developed computational infrastructures which exceed the power of the nation state, are hollowing out our institutions for frictionless (see removing human contact) optimization and are insufficiently described by neoliberalism
