But in many cases it is driven by the retailers.

I quit Twitter before it was cool. I walked away from 3.2M followers, and absolutely nothing changed in my life, other than fewer garbage people disrupting my peace.

There was little value then, and there is even less, now. Staying on Twitter is a moral and ethical failing, disguised as business.
