The best social media experience I've had in years.

Thank you to all of you, among these 15 million accounts, who have helped make this a wonderful place to be.

@stefano eh, 15 million user accounts, yes, but I have by last count at least 8 of them. (I actively use 3).
I think the MAU statistic is much more interesting, and unfortunately that one hovers around 1 million for a while now.

I do think this social media experience is quite nice here, but a lot of people have tried it and given up on it.

I think a lot have realised... "why do I need social media?" after using one that doesn't keep you tightly in it's grasp. I know a few that have done this.
