The pay wall? A great way to get rid of bots. Letting the maga people back in? That sounds rather inclusive! Rate-limiting the free users, well you’re probably on that platform too much anyway. Re-branding it to be “X”, also seems fine tbh…

People love being told what to get angry over it seems, I doubt most of the people criticising him would have come up with these opinions on their own. They seem to just be parroting each other, while enjoying a shared communal outrage.

    I also like what he’s done to Twitter. The world could use less social media, and he’s doing his part to get rid of one.

    Sounds like an opinion about another’s opinion, which in my opinion means you might be a dick. But that’s just my opinion about your opinion. 🤔😬

    People do love being told what to get angry about. But if this is your opinion you either have not looked into any of what’s happening, or you don’t care because it doesn’t affect you or because you agree with the shitty things being done. Either way no meaningful discussion is likely to happen based on your post lol.

      Keep going Elon! You can doooo it!

    I never liked twitter and I hope elon either kills twitter or turns it into a large nostr relay.

    Renaming it to X makes zero sense. Twitter is a good name, the blue bird is a good logo, it brand is well established. Reminds me how Elon nakes his kid to some symbol or something.

    So inclusive that he bans without question anyone that the nazi-affiliated Andy Ngo asks him to, anyone seen making fun of Elon, anyone who uses the site differently than Elon wants them to, anyone who exposes wrongdoing by Musk/Twitter/Tesla/SpaceX, and anyone who he personally disagrees with or doesn’t like. So much for being an inclusive free speech absolutist…

    How the right thought he ever was one to begin with when he’s been blatantly banning people left and right since he took over is truly a fascinating case study in human psychology, marketing, and perception.
