I can give you a pretty direct example. I remember one of the mutuals I had when I used to use twitter, they sometimes used it to ask for help with stuff, similar to how some people ask for help in mutualaid here. Twitter pre-Musk was a big part of what helped move me left politically and got me exposed to political education. When it was bent toward "mask on fascism" pre-Musk, nobody cared in the kind of way presented in this thread, like there was something wrong with you for using it. Now that the mask is off, suddenly people are terrible for being on there. It's weird.

I can't vouch for it having much to offer at this point. I haven't used it in a while and last I knew, a lot had deteriorated in being overrun by zionist bots, or just like, porn bots. But I know that even post-Musk, there were times people furthered connections and like I mentioned first, got help in one way or another.

Edit: Also, if you've never used it and evidently know very little about it in practice, maybe you shouldn't be crusading about who should or shouldn't use it?
