#2Not sure how to feel about it. I think there will be a concentrated mass of user with certain viewpoints. On the other hand the censorship of Twitter is not attractive for many users and alternatives are always good, although I think Twitter is losing relevance for media exposure. Seems we are getting two distince bubbles.

#3Apart from various "trust and safety" censorship and moderation activities, what new features or updates has Twitter done in the past 3 years? I can't think of many changes they've made beyond those things, except for adverse ones (like breaking Firefox compatibility for months).
Is it a conscious choice for them to actively do nothing?
MySpace died because it didn't innovate and refused to invest in the core platform. While Facebook was spiking in popularity, MySpace was still a slow ad-plastered mess. Twitter seems to be that sleepy giant who has stopped all progress.

You think that Trump being silenced is less of an echo chamber?
