It was good place to keep up with artists and game developers. They share each other's work in a way that is great to discover more artists and games that you didn't know about.

Ron Gilbert. The creator of Monkey Island. https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@grumpygamer

Through him, you'll soon find so many developers.

Yep, before deleting my Twitter account after the muskrat invasion I used Twitter to keep up with the developers in my niche. As they usually have insights or I can get a sense on how the tech is going to progress by reading their updates.
