Because my city deems it is still a good idea to post important announcements about roadworks and water interruptions/boil advisory there exclusively :/
With the small carve out exception of people who are fine with the antisocial behavior and management style of the owner, Inertia is the only reason. Governments, influencers, corporations- they all have a following and an established channel which involves minimum expense to maintain.
Ugh same here in the NL with WhatsApp. People act as if it's public infrastructure.
I wish my city works like this. But noooo our local government uses FACEBOOK. ONLY. Twitter is still the lesser of two evils
If only more cities could provide a simple RSS feed..
