twitters decrease in quality as they increase in quality. more followers→constant total positive feedback=disappearing fraction of approval.
@argletargle i don't understand; worse tweets will still have fewer interactions, right?

@VesselOfSpirit if you are trained on having ~100 followers and then suddenly have 1000, it is much easier to get ~5 favorites or retweets. -
@VesselOfSpirit but anything at ~5 or more is a success if you have 100 followers, so you stop learning much at all unless you recalibrate -
@argletargle difference between 5 and 15 interactions feels as important to me as difference between 1 and 3 -
@argletargle (in terms of being trained to say good things) -
@VesselOfSpirit in that case, we are truly on the path to becoming the tsar of twitter.
