I feel this is a downside only to a particular bunch. For most people, Twitter is doing better than ever. Community notes are amazing and innovative and should be adopted by every social media platform. X feels legitimately more fun than most other apps. Plus, at this point, I think a solid portion of people have been banned from social media apps. You can't exile your way towards whatever ideal society you want. The barbarians are always at the gates.

I especially feel this sort of enforced community separation is so prevalent among those who are so reticent to build a border wall, but I'm sure psychology has an explanation somewhere.

Community notes was designed, implemented and released before the acquisition. Only the name is new. Previously it was called birdwatch.

Twitter went from a highly useful daily visit for getting news in my field to being a gigantic time suck to even try to avoid the politics and low-quality posts.

Ah, so you have a certain form of politics, and its beneficial. But Is that "most people" who are on Twitter, were on Twitter, or most people in general? If I want what Twitter is serving me, I can go to any sort of right-wing forum or Fox News article comments (do they still have comments?).

But for those of us that had practical uses for Twitter that weren't partisan politics, its value has been destroyed.

And ad revenue shows that "most people" definitely do not want to be associated with such partisan politics. Twitter's past neutrality allowed all sorts of political views. Now it's become an echo chamber as the owner pushes his own strong partisan politics, and pushes to spread extremist views that may be fine on 4chan, but that 95% of people would rather never expose themselves to.
