Genuine question, as a non-Twitter user, what was Twitter-style discussion that held value like? I only ever heard about it being a quick source for certain official outlets to broadcast to others (which does have value but that's not discussion), a place for political fighting and harassment, and about how you weren't able to have nuanced discussions within the small character limit.

I know one advantage of Mastodon is that the character limit is much higher.

I've been on Mastodon (but not twitter) for a little while and I wonder the same thing. I basically saw no interesting discussion, just "microblogs" and many that's just how it is.
