My missing option was "I tweet, but I don't actually read it." Just venting spleen, usually when #RumpledThinSkin does something unusually offensive. Which reminds me. I haven't vented about the "White Power" tweet...

YouTube comment sections are among the worst relative the the content being shown.
Like in all communities, shit content leads to shit comments, political content result in flame wars, and interesting content result in good comments. It is very apparent in Reddit for instance, where political subreddits are worse than 4chan (at least 4chan doesn't take itself too seriously), but others (ex: r/spacex) have a top notch community.

I have a friend who is on Twitter, and likes to send me links to his tweets in lieu of personal messages. So - whether I care about Twitter or not, I do open those links to read. Does that count?
Also - Twitter was useful several times when I had to shame large companies into cleaning up their s-h-i-t (i.e. unlocking wrongfully locked accounts, processing refunds, things like that). It could be a powerful tool if used wisely.

No reasonable mentally mature discussion is possible in 140-or-what characters.

Your explanation of Twitter, is irrelevant. Twitter is nothing more than the frat boy who shows up to every party just to get drunk and "fuck shit up."

The poll has "No" (No I'm not on Twitter), but if you are on Twitter, the next lowest usage option is "I check Twitter, but very rarely tweet, or not at all". That option implies that you do check Twitter, and to me "check" means you go out to Twitter to see if something's in your timeline.
But what if you are on Twitter but don't check it? I only use Twitter once a year or so to contact a company's support account.

I work in a grocery store, and there are various companies out there that still use esoteric proprietary internal codes for their product best by dates, and twitter is the single fastest way to get a response from their customer service department when you need to learn how to translate one of those codes into human readable form.
Spend an hour on hold and repeating the question over and over, or tweet @ the company, and have the answer in a few minutes. My theory is that, due to the public nature of twitter, they know they gotta get back to you before they get called out about it.
Sometimes, they even change the date format on the product to something rational in the following months.
