Twitter: Diggs: Twitter is toxic

[muck4doo]

That would be TikTok.

Twitter is actually a useful source of news and information if you just follow accounts for that purpose, which is far more appealing to me than sifting through NFL network shows and news broadcasts on TV. If/when something happens you get a report. You're not required to respond to it.

Where it becomes a problem is when you engage with randoms and get into useless debates. It's even worse for folks looking for validation from randoms. That's where the toxicity becomes a problem. Use it like me and no one even knows you're there.

Twitter is also for teens and people seeking echo chambers. It's no better than the garbage that is TikTok.

Twitter is toxic. Good on him for figuring it out, even if he figured it out way late.

You and about 90% of it's users.

He's right and I have more respect that he disregards the BS

 

[bewp7]

yes diggs is right lol

i cant even think how bad it is for a athlete on the cowboys, yankees, lakers, manchester united team like that

he will be better off!

 

[Creeper]

I agree with him. Twitter is a cesspool. The world was better off without it and Facebook. It is not about whether or not you can take a little criticism from people. The question is why bother. Everyone is a critic these days.

And most have no idea what they're talking about, they just repeat the same talking points.

Maybe Diggs would be more comfortable with Tik Tok?!

There is so many people on there that are captain keyboards. Cowards that will only say things online and not in person. Or haters that don’t care about you and are jealous of what you have. Other teams fans that do it to get a rise out of you.

TRUTH

 

[Buzzbait]

Yes it is, and I think this would be a good opportunity to teach his young son about the pitfalls of social media.

Social media is the scourge of our generation. It's an embarrassment to say the least.

I blame Viagra

 

[StylisticS]

Anyone else uncomfortable with how often he's putting his son out there?

no

It's truly nice to see an NFL player stand up against some of these BIG MEDIA SITES! When BIG MEDIA sites like Twitter and ESPN start changing awesome messages by a player's children, then it's time to shut these sites down.

what do you need Julius in your username for

Comparing our greatest rbs to a leader of Roman armies and dictator of Rome or Orange Julius. Not sure which.

 

[coult44]

This means people were saying mean things to him.

No it doesn’t. It means Twitter is Freaking Toxic!!! No public figure in their right mind would interact with, or read the garbage from the idiot population on Twitter. Any of you who expect them to do so is what makes it toxic!!
