Using twitter for self-improvement comes with significant and serious risks, many of which are nearly impossible to explain to any human, and are only solvable by not using twitter.
makes sense. fwiw, i think that the majority of the benefit of twitter comes from posting stuff yourself (rather than lurking or reading other peoples’ tweets).

What are those risks? Or if you can’t say, how did you come to know about them?

Wow, I have exactly the opposite experience. I check Twitter once per week for 15-60 minutes, and the main goal is to get new ideas from smart people.
I presume at least one of those risks is radicalization into truly absurd ideologies.
That’s true, but I would consider that a symptom, not the disease itself.
