Is there any reason people use Twitter that isn't addiction? countless people have lost their careers because of it, and almost everyone agrees its made the world a worse place.

I use a bot to spread my propaganda

exploiting addicts, of course.

It's really fucking easy to reach an inordinate amount of people with it compared to other social media

I love it cause I can shout my opinions into the void and feel like it's heard

Advertising.

Follow good people like developers who only tweet good stuff, they are there. Only feed so many accounts you have time time to read. You gain insights. If you start tweeting you can use it for self-promotion as well, though I have not done this.
Good thing about twitter is that it's still chronological, for instance you can log in once a week, read everything the people you have followed posted and log out. On most other content aggregation feed sites there is way too much stuff to read and the site sort of forces you to check in regularly because if you don't the old stuff disappears. There is no fomo on twitter in the same sense. Used properly it's really efficient.
The platform is a problem though, so much random shit going on there. Also very easy to get distracted and start following random politics shit. Also once in a while someone you follow has a trump meltdown or something and you have to unfollow.

I go on there to troll now and again, but it just seems like it's basically all news media and maybe some soccer moms? It's most just commercial shit like pointed out.

Jow Forums I would has helped me.

Jow Forums has helped me*

I only use that POS to stalk cute girls (male)

How? Jow Forums is the bane of my existence.

It kept me company while I quit drugs, kept me company when I wanted to die (and still does), helped me start learning Spanish, helped me improve my posture, helped me shop for various things, helped me know what to get inspected when buying a house, gives me a place to talk about my hobbies (audio, computers and airplanes) without forum bullshit, helped me get thin (although lately i've been slipping!), and on and on.

I wish I had a relationship with 4chins the way you do
for me it's just sit on multiple boards for 10 hours and not accomplish anything i need to, refreshing every 15 minutes or something.

following japanese artists and other media
don't know japanese so can't use japanese sites

This, its like crack.

I waste lots of time here, I mean I should be working now, so it isn't all roses.

Try to keep some self improvement threads going. Make yourself a 5 year plan of where you'd like to be at the end of each year with a reasonable goal at the end of each year. So like for me it was quit drugs, get a job, get thin, move out of my dads garage, ...all those things took me a year but I completed them. Make threads and find generals that are helpful to your goals. Jow Forums gives you lots of resources. Sure a lot of times the threads are shit, but when they are good they can make a hell of a difference for a loner

I mean they took me a year individually, I should clarify. So that's 4 years worth of time there.

Lots of interesting users from various communities have congregated there. Jow Forums and Reddit feel really stale in comparison nowadays.

Then again a lot of Jow Forums boards are toxic dead-ends in their field. The worst I know of is /fa/.

>toxic
go back

nou, it's toxic

The goal is to browse Jow Forums while doing other things. You would only browse a board if you partake in the hobby/interest the board is about so you can shitpost about it while looking for meaningful discussion about the hobby.
Porn boards are for porn, obviously, but that's a whole other can of worms. If you really have a problem with it, get some hobbies and refresh a single board whenever you get something done with that hobby.

Pretty much this. Without Jow Forums my office would get like 40% more work out of me, but, I get something done.
