If it’s worth saying, but not worth its own post, here's a place to put it.

You can also make a shortform post.

And, if you are new to LessWrong, here's the place to introduce yourself.

Personal stories, anecdotes, or just general comments on how you found us and what you hope to get from the site and community are welcome.

If you want to explore the community more, I recommend reading the Library, checking recent Curated posts, seeing if there are any meetups in your area, and checking out the Getting Started section of the LessWrong FAQ.

Have any of these people said why they have made that choice?

Not that I've seen, but I have seen Paul Graham tweet complaints about Twitter, and I think I've seen Eliezer complain about the behavior of users on the platform.

Twitter makes tweet replies less prominent than Facebook. When I'm scrolling down Eliezer's Facebook feed, I see comment replies to his posts. When I scroll down his Twitter feed, I have to click a tweet to see replies. So that could be playing a role.

It doesn't seem socially expected to reply to replies to your tweets.
