Press (Twitter) for doubt
FTFY
Man-child overpays for company, makes a concerted effort to ruin the things that make it good, then complains that it’s not good anymore.
For someone who claims to be smart, Elon is a fucking idiot.
Tends to be true of the vast majority of people that scream about how smart they are
Will it just go out of business already? I’m tired of hearing about stupid ideas from a billionaire grifter.
Get hundreds of millions of people to quit using it finally, and all the advertisers that went back to quit propping up the dying company.
SOMETHING is keeping it in business, and it’s not constant cash from Elon. He hasn’t sold any new stock lately that I’m aware of, and is what he’d need to do to pump in more money. Which Tesla shareholders get really pissed when he does.
And it doesn’t even matter. I’m starting to wonder if Elon is just trying to see how much he can annoy people without them moving to another social media platform. Twitter wasn’t great before and is now much worse from what I can tell, yet its users don’t actually care because if they did, they’d have moved to alternatives, which hasn’t really happened.
That’s an innovative way to combat clickbaiting.
You know you can add additional text along with the link, right? like the headline of the news?
Keeping up with Twitter news has become like watching a Netflix show that you know got canceled before any of the plot threads were resolved.
Twitter’s death is inevitable at this point, so who cares about the details?
The one thing Twitter was still sort of useful for was getting feeds from news organizations that aren’t on Mastodon yet, this is going to kill it for that.
Yup. I still go to Twitter to supplement what I get news-wise from here and Mastodon, and as they drive news sites from Twitter, the less use I have for it.
RSS is still a thing
This moron is trying too hard to kill Twitter (X). I really don’t understand how many people are comfortable with his vesianic decisions and keep using the platform as if nothing happens.
