Default Re: Twitter is already headed towards becoming the everything app

It's funny how Twitter is running better than ever, and it's even funnier how many people are using Twitter to tell its how it's broken

They have literally 0 self awareness, none, not even an inkling of self awareness

How are you defining "running better"?

No technical problems, far less censorship, way more traffic, better content, fewer ads

Sure it might be costing the new owner money, but so what? It's a win win situation.

There have been technical problems, such as two-factor authentication failing.

He might've gotten it back up so far, but with a greatly reduced staff, it's probably a matter of time before Twitter goes down and it takes a while to get it back up. If you stop getting your car maintained, it's not going to break down immediately. That doesn't mean you never actually needed the mechanics...

Also I don't know what you mean about fewer ads. I've been seeing plenty. Fewer ad buyers, I will grant you. Thinking that losing major corporate advertising accounts is a win for Twitter/Musk... is uh... I don't know what to say to that.

Yes I understand the more Nazis and more n-words might count as better content to you... Thus far the content pretty much the same on my feed, I'll grant, but that's partly down to the way I personally use Twitter. It's definitely not noticeably improved though.

Same here. I have a pretty curated experience on Twitter. I will miss it when it goes, but I will find most of the people I follow elsewhere.

With the new features that have been added (Blue checkmark only at the moment), money is now changing hands on Twitter.

Which is why I paid for a blue checkmark.


Of course so far it's all flowing away from me.








Then I see Musk has a Sub section, and I am all like, FFFFUUUCCCKKKKK















Goddamnit Twitter
