schestowitz-pi3you don';t tweet, so i will explainJun 29 18:32
schestowitz-pi3if i scroll past 20 "tweets", that's 20 "impressions"Jun 29 18:32

schestowitz-pi3the rest, barely even 200 "impressions" after 5 hours, i.e. maybe not worthJun 29 18:36
schestowitz-pi3the time typing it, maybe only 20% if the impressions are actually readJun 29 18:36

schestowitz-pi3I was just discussing all this moments ago with Rianne, recalling 2010 Glyn Moody in Twitter, as now, 10 years senior, has has 10th the audience he once had, and Alexei asked me this morning where people are moving, insisting it's "Telegram". I asked him to back this up with solid numbers but he could not. That media [sic] company/app that said 95% SPAM... they're just the ones admitting it. They're all disst posers like spamnil and gulagboy.Jun 29 18:44
