Famous people’s tweets being cross-posted here is a net negative

It’s more talking head content that’s disconnected from the local meta and given they don’t reply, there’s no discourse either

If you use the lens of disruption theory, we’re downmarket of X and we need “local” features, not shallow thinkboi transplantation

100% agree. discourse is the lifeblood of social networks and this crossposting just ends up being noise bc there’s no engagement/discourse from the original caster

It comes off to me as a cannibalistic social practice that is literally counterproductive (precious time wasted on a non engagement/fake invitation to engage) stealing time that might be used to respond to an active person here; there’s only so much time in a day, I literally have a certain number of minutes to respond each day.  Plus it’s socially irresponsible: setting people up to expect discourse but be ignored. Like a hotline number with a photo and a promise but no staff. 🤡
