Twitter is full of idiots, definitely, but they are easily avoided. I use it a lot, mostly to talk to other people in my profession about nerdy data things.
I think people sometimes see Twitter as this hellscape where you're constantly barraged with the inane ramblings of the mind-numbing masses and that place definitely exists but you choose your content on there.
I have a "professional" Twitter account from being a theatre critic and mine is full of moaning actors; it's the absolute pits and I only use it to advertise for traffic... Socially I hate the thing. Another way for Johnny-come-Nobody to vent his spleen without being contradicted.
