X glitch wipes out most pictures and links tweeted before December 2014::Ellen’s famous ‘most retweeted’ selfie from the 2014 Oscars has had its image restored, but most old tweets have broken short links instead of the media or links that should be there.

Your answer because I like it doesn't clear things up.

It really does, though. Especially if you’re not looking for some ulterior motive and you just enjoy the platform.

I follow a bunch of scientists and I can’t think of another place that would allow me to, say, follow the LK-99 fiasco in real time the way twitter allowed me to.

I was able to watch people synthesize stuff pretty much live.

So to answer your question again, I like it, so I use it. I can only imagine lots of other people are also using it because they somehow like it.

Again, hope that helps you understand something so simple.
