Erving Goffman's "Asylum" is an excellent reading on how not to implement a social media : the capitalistic ones are designed to turn into total institutions for their socially isolated users. I won't mince words to please do-gooders, cutting millions of people's time schedules to the bone of meals and 5 hours of sleep per night, lifting social activities, studies, work, and family life, is a crime against humanity.

Sorry I'm tired. I didn't sleep well last night, I woke up 8 times.
I'm about 60% sure that Twitter is designed around Goffman's "Asylum" to optimize its communities towards aggregating isolated teenagers and turning into total institutions. This is, anyway, how these communities behave, and it drives both user retention and their AFK isolation. Isolating the victim is a classic abuse strategy and a lot of power dispositives accumulate to actually make Twitter users toxic, joke about ruining Christmas dinners with political discussions, etc. I've read Måneskin fans tweet about Twitter bringing up the worst in them.
