I am not a hot fan of Twitter. As a matter of fact, I have assiduously avoided Twitter. Twitter's treatment of Trump never sat well with me. As a certified Trumpist I could not see myself patronising a setup dedicated to the destruction of Trumpism.
But with the outbreak of hostilities I broke my boycott of Twitter. The Russo Ukrainian war has been frustrating in many ways. There are not as many western journalists on the ground there as say in the Iraqi war. So news is sparse. But Twitter have lots of stuff from Joes on the ground there.
But Twitter does not appear to filter the contributions by language. You get everything: in English, French, Ukrainian, Greek, Russian, whatever. I am fine with the English, French and Spanish contributions. Not all that good with Spanish, but can figure it just fine. Then the Italians pop, I kind of vaguely get it. Then the Portuguese pop up, which I just vaguely get, if at all. Then the Ukrainians pop up, which I dont get at all. Some Romanian, looks like a Latin based language.
Then the maps. Crazy. As if it is not bad enough that the names of Ukrainian localities are not unfamiliar enough, they come up in cyrillic characters!
What is your twitter experience, if any?
Tweety earned his Twitter ban. Now he can post on his own site.
I'm excited for you.LOL Funny thing is I am boycotting Trump's site as well. My position is more accurately Trumpism without Trump

My experience with Twitter is that it is a spectacular resource for checking whether the rumble I just heard or felt was a Bay Area earthquake or someone downstairs dropping something very heavy..
