I use it for business a lot, I've met a lot of people in the industry using it which is fun. I purposely don't tweet anything controversial though, I put on my work face. Nobody wants my opinion on BLM for example.

Never used twitter before...
Was never really on my radar or something that appealed to what I like to do online as far as social media is concerned

I'm with you. I despise Twitter because it has further dumb-ed down social interactions and discussions (which already happened with other social networks since they are echo chambers and meme-factories) but I can understand its allure to people... Not much to do, I wish journalism distanced itself from social networks though, it's rather stupid to fill articles with tweets and FB posts, as if every TV-report would consist of street interviews alone :/ Not saying they should ignore the people but perhaps start doing real journalism again.
It one of our main forms of broadcast-based communication. The quality of it's content depends on the people using it.
