Choosing Michael Ian Black for this is... a choice. Seems like he's been losing fans left and right over the years with his aggressive political brigades on Twitter

Oh, sure, I didn't mean to compare the two really. Just pointing out that although Twitter is simple and easy to replicate in concept, trying to scale to support all humans as users (theoretically) is difficult

To be fair, Twitter needs very good infrastructure to be usable (e.g. caching) and obviously content moderation is as robust as their investment in it (those could be contract workers though)
