Do you have a twitter account?

I see more and more artists (or other random stuff) organizing raffles/contests/giveaways etc on twitter, or even furry artists opening commissions on twitter only. My questions are do you have a twitter account? If not, would you make one just to catch those offers? and if you wouldn't, what do you think of using twitter for a furry artist?
I personnaly don't have a twitter account because I already use one social media and that's already plenty sufficient, I have absolutely no need, no reason to register on any other, and I do not intend to get on twitter just to see these artists and catch the content they put exclusively on. Imo what these artists don't understand is that Twitter is not a marketplace and people are not going to register if they don't have a better reason than to catch the exclusive offer of one artist. Using twitter in priority is a mistake because it splits the community, make the artist lose a wide part of his audience (which is HERE on the fandom's most popular site and not on twitter) and deprives the biggest part of the followers/fans from content.
So yeah, that's stupid. Please don't forget where is the fandom, it's here, not on those social medias.

Although alot of drama and senseless things are on twitter, usually i try my best to ignore and not get involved in that crazy stuff, just enjoy the fandom! Best part about twitter is the bell notification system that notify's you when someone posts a tweet, IE Artists open for commissions or posting artwork. So no need to scroll through the madness.
