Like the old person I am, I still don’t like people retweeting praise about their own content. It not only feels like bragging, it’s also extremely boring

Hmmmm.... You are complaining because someone who provides you with valuable and free content sometimes retweets praise. 🤔

IMHO A far worse problem are the simplistic and misleading tweets (or threads) of the form "Technology X sucks/rocks" with absolutely no discussion of the trade-offs
