I'm curious about what people actually get from being on X/Twitter these days? I had a look this morning, and there are some faces from our community neck deep in whatever AI trend they're into, but outside of that it's just waves of hateful folk being dreadful to each other, and being very clearly manipulated into more and more extreme views.

How do they live like that? They can't be happy, right?
