It's another social media platform. Not sure how their user base compares to other social media tools.

Yes but if you quote & people reply it's only to you and the original poster is left out of the convo. That's why I RT & reply.

Yes, but if it comes across as self-promotional rather than helpful, it's a huge turn off.

A7 Twitter can be a great way to self promote & you might be able to share same stuff on different chats. It depends on which ones

A7 Oh my gosh, no. Don't post the same tweet in more than one chat. It's lazy, and people follow you chat to chat will dislike you.

Agree. Sometimes a tweet-especially if u are sharing a resource-would be of benefit to multiple chats. Just be aware of your habits.

Yup. I want to highlight their original tweet especially if it's an example of practice. You could keep their handle in the QT too.
