Who uses the twitter?

I've had an account for a while, but didn't tweet often. Since deleting facebook I've been using it a lot more. I've found it to be a great resource for getting better deals without having to actually talk to a person. I recently tweeted at Cincinnati Bell that our bill was too high and speeds were too slow compared to what I could get from Spectrum. With just two tweets, I lowered our bill by $25/month and increased our speeds from 200Mbps to 500Mbps. Not bad.

Also, following our dear leader is good for a laugh.

I use twitter, mainly for news. Since I've gotten on Reddit though, my twitter use has dropped significantly.

I use Twitter often, for both information and entertainment (see justin's last line above)

I use Twitter often. Easy access to tons of information and updates.

Gather information, don't tweet

I enjoy Twitter. It's still a hellscape, but not nearly as bad as Facebook.

Cavs Twitter is probably my favorite subset of people. Highly entertaining.

Read it often, mostly sports and politics. I hate it, but continue to read it a ton. Similar to above Indians vs Browns twitter in September is the worst.

I use Twitter and look at it at least once a day. I look at it way more than FB.

I use it in coaching much more than I do my personal account. Tweet results, etc. Enjoy the people I follow through my sports club account much more than my personal. Basketball team's feed is about 90% basketball related.

Love twitter. Use it for traffic, fantasy football, browns news, trending topics, and laughing at Trump.

Love Twitter. What (little) time I used to watch news is now on Twitter, plus all my other “social media time” as I don’t have any other accounts.

I find it’s 10x more enjoyable if you don’t read mentions. Just read the actual Tweet of the people you follow. It really is second to none in the information gathering universe. The preview of articles being shown in Tweets was a great addition.

Twitter is great. I've gotten more into it and less into Facebook over the years. To where I use both, but I'm on FB for about a minute at a time and Twitter for a few minutes, more often than not.

Twitter is in my regular cycle of sites I check in on. I only tweet maybe once or twice a week.

I enjoy the Twitter meltdowns.

Used to use it for Fantasy Football updates, but I use the Fantasy Life app for that now. It's a little easier, as it already filters out everything non-FFL related.

As it stands, I never go onto Twitter directly anymore. The only time I venture over is if someone links to something on Twitter.

It's a good way for breaking info. I usually check it about a half dozen times a day.

It would be nice to see OhioChatter tweet sometimes. It would help to spread the word about this site and very probably get more users. Friends and friends of friends and so on would see the likes of the people currently posting. You can tweet about anything from trending threads or whatever. There's an OC handle but I never see anybody tweet.

Yeah, it has been a while. I forget who all has access, but I know I gave access to others to tweet from the account. I will try to force myself to tweet going forward. We (mainly my wife) were using facebook a little a while ago but I've since deleted my account so I'm not sure what's going on there. It really wasn't driving any traffic or activity, unfortunately.
