There is a chance that I just don't get microblogging. I've always felt that short character limits encourage people to make bad points that resonate emotionally but fall apart when thought through, and to yell at people they disagree with rather than being thoughtful.

That's how I feel too. It's really limits the ability to actually carry on a conversation. The one thing I will say is that a focus on people other than the focus on content gives a different sort of vibe which is situational useful

I agree, which is why i don't use Twitter/X, Bluesky, or Mastodon. I prefer the Lemmy/Reddit style of medium-length, topic-centered discussion.
