About the person who said they’ve never met a person irl who uses Twitter, there is data that supports that. Only about 22% of American adults have a Twitter and 80% of tweets come from 10% of users. Only about 2% of the U.S. is exceptionally active on it, and that doesn’t even account for all of the brands that tweet all day.
I've never met a person IRL that uses Twitter. Or at least anyone who mentioned they have ever used it. Maybe thats because I only meet other poor working class people though.

twitter is only good for posting and following art. theres alot of really talented japanese artists who use the site, and the only thing they post is their drawings and pictures of their food. i WISH the rest of the world used twitter like they do
Even then, being a new artist on the sites is very difficult to get noticed. Twitter cropping is the bane of every artist and the algorithm barely promotes us since it promotes more comments that likes which many artist don't have in their pieces. Many big artists coordinate art shares every now and then for comments because they know the struggles of getting traction from the very bottom

UA-cam also no longer will verify creators. They quietly went back on it without announcing it. You have to be a brand or corporation to get verified on youtube CURRENTLY. They said they won't be considering doing so again for users until October. Rip Disclaimer. I applied for verification in February and emailed UA-cam and they said they do not verify creators anymore until further notice.
You know what, I think we should make some stink about it, to make them go back to verifying accounts. Don't know if it'll work, maybe if the outrage gets big enough, but we gotta try. (On a sidenote, all those various brands/corporations sticking themselves everywhere and trying to get absolutely everything for themselves are starting to get on my nerves. Furthermore, UA-cam itself doesn't have a good excuse for that other than their standard beating around the bush, and saying that _"we're not verifying accounts at the moment, because blah blah blah".)_
You know, it's interesting when you hear people talking about whiny fanbases, most of what they're talking about comes from Twitter. I think this perfectly sums up people on Twitter.

I dont agree with that at all. Twitter is way worse than youtube comments. I find many channels comment sections to be really deep and meaningful. If you see toxic YT comments as regularly as it is on Twitter then youre probably watching a shitty channel with a shitty fanbase.
I actually think the comment section on youtube is more reasonable than twitter. At least youtube comments don't try to cancel people, clout chase, witch hunt, spam fancams, ect

It's impossible to quantify which social media platforms have the most pretentious, pseudo-intellectual (usually left-wing but not always) dumbasses using them. Is it Reddit? Twitter? Facebook? Instagram? Tumblr? The world may never know.

@@TapDat52K it's kinda impossible, Especially for the size of something like UA-cam or Twitter. Since, You will eventually need to use bots to curate them, and...... I don't think I need to finish my statement
Twitter for Hentai sounds like a site which should exist if it doesn't already. Hell, if PornHub wanted they could just make a full-on copy of Twitter all about porn in general and make tons of money.
I really agree with you thinking of Twitter as toxic. It's sad that it's like that because a lot of people see toxic people in X community acting toxic, and they think that it applies to every person in that community.
What’s worse about cancelling, is that Twitter’s features are extremely unforgiving. No deleting DMs, deleted tweets still appear on TLs, hard to remove individual bookmarks, deactivation takes way too long, etc.
Your comment gave me enough reason of not going back to Twitter. I started Twitter to just voice opinions but never got any enough likes or hearts no matter how many hashtags I put out. I was thinking of going back, but after watching this video and your comment alone, I'm fully convinced not going back. If Twitter is what Emplemon said, _"A cesspool of sin and misery."_ along with cancel culture. Then I'm good on not using this social media again.
What's messed up about UA-cam verification, after getting roasted last year about it, they quietly disbanded most future verifications after that. I've been over 100K subscribers since December, and all I get back when asking about YT verifications, is that they aren't accepting any new applications at the moment. Sound familiar?
90% of Twitter is exactly as you described it. What's worse is that the 10% that's actually decently enjoyable is near impossible to find. It's also annoying that it's still somehow the main way most creators get in contact with their fans despite there being far better mediums out there, and it's incredibly hard to navigate unless you're active on it because of how it mixes together a person's tweets, replies, and likes on their profile
Wow thank you so much for repeating what the youtuber already has said, but hey I can't blame you, you didn't achieve your end goal of getting those likes.
Back in like 2011 I used Twitter to actually talk to a few celebrities. No one TOO big. Edgar Wright is probably the most notable, and we discussed the clackers used in movies. It was neat. Twitter doesn't resemble that site anymore. Especially the last couple months, it's been quite a war. The good ol' potus isn't helping, and I'd argue has made things worse. Twitter is just bizarre overall though. I don't know why anyone uses it anymore. It doesn't do anything that literally any other social media doesn't let you do, and what it does do, it does worse. Although, Facebook's promotion system is absolute garbage. It's as if corporatizing societal discourse destroys it or something, but who knows... I'm just an unverified account
The internet in general isn't the same place as it was back in 2011. I consider 2011 the last good year for the internet. Everything's been going downhill since then. Politics has seeped into everything and internet censorship is to the point where social media sites feel like the internet version of North Korea. Everything's just so clinical and devoid of fun nowadays thanks to SJW outrage mobs holding the reins and steering the culture in the direction they want it to go in, not the direction everyone else wants it to go in.
PlotTwist actually the thing I hate most on the internet is when people blame literally anything on these super vague SJW’s like who are these sjw’s that are ruining the internet cause I’m not seeing them.
I use Twitter mostly to look at art, animation news and cute dogs. I might post my own art someday for fun. I try to avoid politics like the plague but it's honestly impossible. Somehow it ends up leaking into my timeline
We're headed into the Kali Yuga where petty authority figures, the type you find on Twitter, run society. The new internet sucks but it's mainly because of the outside world imposing its grip on it.
@Mrs Derka but you see, the seething hatred for him is causing anti-SJWs to get more pissed off at SJWs, which leads to both sides wanting to put the internet into their favor. He's not directly to blame for it, but the outrage mob made such a big hoopla about him, it's only made things worse.
Combined with this and the Matt Watson video, it genuinely seems that this former meme reviewer puts more effort into journalism than basically every online based outlet and 90% of MSM outlets. EmpLemon is the new muckraker.
It's pretty clear to me: people started viewing the blue check mark as an endorsement because twitter will take yours away for posting opinions that don't line up with thiers.
As soon as I heard the phrase "Twitter is a mental institution" I thought to myself "Count me in!" and almost went to the site to jump head first into the waste pile. But as the video continued the site sounded less like a insane asylum and more like Dante's Inferno. No degeneracy is worth that. Until I see a detailed map of Twitter's topography on what areas are free from divine intervention I'll wait a few years for the authority to collapse in on itself.
@@Zorro9129 eh, anymore, I find that 4chan is becoming less and less fun to interact with. People get heated over there too, but it's definitely better than twitter.
Emplemon needs to make a sequel to this video. Ever since Elon bought Twitter, the Twitter verification took a direction Emplemon wouldn't even seen coming. I know it's too early to make it but whatever fate happens to Twitter, I hope Emplemon makes this follow-up.
@@yonatanbeer3475 With the strict rules these days that's unlikely. Before anyone could make a channel and start earning money from videos. Now you have to EARN monetization. Videos like that would get taken down pretty quickly.
because UA-cam has to appease advertisers, not their own userbase. if Pepsi is shown before a video they don't like, then Pepsi may will inclined to remove ads.
I actually had to take a break from Twitter and even Instagram for how ignorant and toxic they are. It just ruins your mood when you're trying to have a decent time
That would just make them migrate to other sites. Don't destroy the mental institution man, they'll just roam free. Better to keep them there where we can ignore them
my favorite moment from twitter is when hulk hogan said "RIP BAM MISS YOU BRO" thinking bam margera was ryan dunn, only to have bam reply and be like "dude I'm not dead"
That's not true! There's....uh....erm.....hold on....lemme think. Ah-hah! There's...oh wait no....no no...that declined too. Ooh, ooh! There's 4Chan! Its been shit from the start!
"Twitter is like if you took the UA-cam comments section and made that the whole website" I feel this is semi-true. A better quote would be, "Twitter is like if you took the toxic people of the UA-cam comments section and made that the whole website" I've had perfectly good conversations with people on UA-cam, but I wouldn't even fuck with Twitter. I just see it and all the toxicity just reminds me of what this website is like. The only non-toxic people you'll find are ones who are just on Twitter to support their favorite content creators/keep updated on their favorite content creators, the content creators, or the people in the comments of porn.

About the person who said they’ve never met a person irl who uses Twitter, there is data that supports that. Only about 22% of American adults have a Twitter and 80% of tweets come from 10% of users. Only about 2% of the U.S. is exceptionally active on it, and that doesn’t even account for all of the brands that tweet all day.

I bet that 10% of users includes bots.

I've never met a person IRL that uses Twitter. Or at least anyone who mentioned they have ever used it. Maybe thats because I only meet other poor working class people though.
as someone with a twitter account (regretfully, might i add), i’ve come across people who tweet *_hundreds of times a day,_* mostly about toxic political shit. a lot of these people also had very clear political biases, either stated in their bios or in the statements they made (again, VERY frequently) in many of their own tweets.
so yeah, there’s your answer. it’s for people who are unnaturally obsessed with politics, to an unhealthy degree.
1. Be famous or a reporter
2. Be company that advertises a lot on Twitter
3. Become part of a youtube network that will get your verification
4. Just pay $6,000 for the checkmark
5. If you're not apart of these steps, then you're fucked from the get-go
5. Profit
6. Dont use Twitter
you people complain about how twitter sucks but also complain that you can't get a mark next to your name to feel important
Step 7: File a 27B-6 form.

UA-cam also no longer will verify creators. They quietly went back on it without announcing it. You have to be a brand or corporation to get verified on youtube CURRENTLY. They said they won't be considering doing so again for users until October. Rip
Disclaimer. I applied for verification in February and emailed UA-cam and they said they do not verify creators anymore until further notice.
Sorry to hear that, this will piss off a lot of moderate youtubers.

What's messed up about UA-cam verification, after getting roasted last year about it, they quietly disbanded most future verifications after that.

90% of Twitter is exactly as you described it. What's worse is that the 10% that's actually decently enjoyable is near impossible to find.

Back in like 2011 I used Twitter to actually talk to a few celebrities. No one TOO big. Edgar Wright is probably the most notable, and we discussed the clackers used in movies. It was neat.
Twitter doesn't resemble that site anymore. Especially the last couple months, it's been quite a war. The good ol' potus isn't helping, and I'd argue has made things worse.
Twitter is just bizarre overall though. I don't know why anyone uses it anymore. It doesn't do anything that literally any other social media doesn't let you do, and what it does do, it does worse. Although, Facebook's promotion system is absolute garbage.
It's as if corporatizing societal discourse destroys it or something, but who knows... I'm just an unverified account
The internet in general isn't the same place as it was back in 2011. I consider 2011 the last good year for the internet. Everything's been going downhill since then. Politics has seeped into everything and internet censorship is to the point where social media sites feel like the internet version of North Korea. Everything's just so clinical and devoid of fun nowadays thanks to SJW outrage mobs holding the reins and steering the culture in the direction they want it to go in, not the direction everyone else wants it to go in.
PlotTwist actually the thing I hate most on the internet is when people blame literally anything on these super vague SJW’s like who are these sjw’s that are ruining the internet cause I’m not seeing them.
I use Twitter mostly to look at art, animation news and cute dogs. I might post my own art someday for fun.
I try to avoid politics like the plague but it's honestly impossible. Somehow it ends up leaking into my timeline
We're headed into the Kali Yuga where petty authority figures, the type you find on Twitter, run society. The new internet sucks but it's mainly because of the outside world imposing its grip on it.
@Mrs Derka but you see, the seething hatred for him is causing anti-SJWs to get more pissed off at SJWs, which leads to both sides wanting to put the internet into their favor. He's not directly to blame for it, but the outrage mob made such a big hoopla about him, it's only made things worse.
Combined with this and the Matt Watson video, it genuinely seems that this former meme reviewer puts more effort into journalism than basically every online based outlet and 90% of MSM outlets. EmpLemon is the new muckraker.
Sometimes i like to watch this video to remind myself of a simpler time
It's pretty clear to me: people started viewing the blue check mark as an endorsement because twitter will take yours away for posting opinions that don't line up with thiers.

"That website everyone knows but no one seems to use" the most accurate description of Twitter I've ever heard.
Only 3 things I go on Twitter for:
1. Game news and deals
2. Memes
3. "Wholesome" art
Me:
1) Porn.
Twitter: Your one stop shop relieve your anger and libido at the same time
Twitter ain't even good for porn.
@@thompsonator4696 its good to smuggle porn
Why doesn't UA-cam also say "Monetization does not equal endorsement." And call it a day? I legitimately don't understand.
Because people are too stupid to make such mental gymnastic feat
It has nothing to do with UA-cam and everything to do with monetization. Advertisers don't want their product advertised over an ISIS beheading video.
@@yonatanbeer3475 With the strict rules these days that's unlikely. Before anyone could make a channel and start earning money from videos. Now you have to EARN monetization. Videos like that would get taken down pretty quickly.
because UA-cam has to appease advertisers, not their own userbase. if Pepsi is shown before a video they don't like, then Pepsi may will inclined to remove ads.
If people were all rational enough for that to work, it wouldn't be a concern in the first place :(
Down on my knees absolutely begging for part 2
"You can get cancelled, you can get suspended for no reason"
DAMN EMP
Here's a better line
"You can destroy people's lives, you can spam copyright strikes to your hated accounts."
I wouldn’t mind Twitter getting deleted off the internet. The world would be better for it.
I actually had to take a break from Twitter and even Instagram for how ignorant and toxic they are. It just ruins your mood when you're trying to have a decent time
But then these people will plague some other site. Twitter is like the alcatraz/arkham asylum of the internet.
Rappin' Ronnie Reagan That’s fair lol. At least people know what they’re getting into.
That would just make them migrate to other sites. Don't destroy the mental institution man, they'll just roam free. Better to keep them there where we can ignore them
Idk man that feels like when 4chan nuked the furry board and they all spread to other boards because they had nowhere to go.
When stake-ummms is more helpful and kind than Twitter it’s self
I see you.
You’ve searched for this video haven’t you. Yeah. Me too
:)
Be quiet wise azz
:p
:3
:D
my favorite moment from twitter is when hulk hogan said "RIP BAM MISS YOU BRO" thinking bam margera was ryan dunn, only to have bam reply and be like "dude I'm not dead"
Every website is going on a downward spiral at this point
That's not true!
There's....uh....erm.....hold on....lemme think.
Ah-hah! There's...oh wait no....no no...that declined too.
Ooh, ooh! There's 4Chan! Its been shit from the start!
Everything in this world…more like
@@connorp3764 When 4chan becomes the only sane place on the internet, you'll know the end is on us.
"Twitter is like if you took the UA-cam comments section and made that the whole website"
I feel this is semi-true. A better quote would be, "Twitter is like if you took the toxic people of the UA-cam comments section and made that the whole website"
I've had perfectly good conversations with people on UA-cam, but I wouldn't even fuck with Twitter. I just see it and all the toxicity just reminds me of what this website is like. The only non-toxic people you'll find are ones who are just on Twitter to support their favorite content creators/keep updated on their favorite content creators, the content creators, or the people in the comments of porn.
Yeah
I mean, you look at this comment section to see how toxic it is (or the lack of)
It’s surprising how porn comment sections are so healthy
@@sc1cash Or filled with people self promoting, I didn't know PornHub and Instagram had so much in common
@@Michael-hc2hp its almost surreal how similar pornhub comment and instagram comments can be a times.
"current CEO Jack Dorsey"...
God what a simpler time...
