I could see this actually gaining popularity from their Instagram user base. Twitter doesn’t attract younger people or influencers. It’ll be like discovering Facebook for gen z, where they can also share text posts. Maybe that’ll attract the people who left Twitter for turning alt-right. If it gets big enough, public figures could even leave Twitter. I’d be shocked if that happened, but a gal can hope.

This isn’t something I have any interest and I hate meta as much as anyone else here, but I’m interested in seeing how it will play out. If we can’t escape capitalism, at least we can watch it as a social experiment.
