Which everyone called immediately. Guy wouldn't unban Alex Jones and appeared to have a huge hate on for the guy. Twitter is just Elon's ego project. If you use Twitter you're stroking elons ego.
Gab is fine if you want free speech. It's as close as you'll get. I still don't understand why anyone uses it. Terrible platform for actual discussions.
The part of the Fediverse that Mastodon users call "Alt Fedi" is much better than Gab. It's like Gab in that it allows free political speech, but it also allows obscene speech which Gab bans. I recommend bae.st, poa.st, and gameliberty.club as instances to sign up with.
It's multiple sites ("instances") that either connect with or block each other.
This leads to two spheres - a "safe space zone" mostly running the Mastodon software and a "free speech zone" mostly running the Pleroma and/or Soapbox software.
I strongly recommend free speech instances because, unlike something like Gab or Truth Social, usually extends free political speech to obscene speech. Just be aware it's the Wild West - you will find racists and pedophiles there.
I used to have keywords that I watched on tweetdeck just to follow news. Since they put it behind a pay wall a couple weeks go I've used twitter at all, though.
A lot of companies are moving their news, updates and alerts to X because it saves them money on hosting and storage. Problem is, X seems intent on making things harder (see Nitter's recent troubles) for anyone who does not have an account. Plus, discussion on one of the topics I am interested in only takes place on X, rarely anyone will stray off that path and post on YouTube or even Reddit. There is zero chance of any of them ever going on Gab, Gettr, Odysee, Rumble or here.
I still think we need to be aware of the direction that AI covert censorship is moving. It only takes a change of leadership to enable this source code.
I don't understand why people use Twitter.
It was a free speech bait and switch (like reddit)

It seems time to develop Nostr (jack dorsey himself has abandoned twitter as hopeless)

Can you explain what this is? Is Fediverse a single site?

Twitter is a de-radicalization gayop.
Only time I open it up is to find passwords for MMD models or check for updates on my favourite touhou artists.

Let it die.

the title of this thread is completely false. nothing in the tweet suggests Musk has actually implemented any of this.
(also the tweet doesn't attempt to prove that the source code snapshot is authentic or current)
I can delete the thread if you think its wrong.

I think it is useful information to keep up. The clarification has been made.
Elon has always been straightforward that he wants X to be like weebo, in that it polices social credit and everything. This shouldn't be a surprise.
Isn't this stuff in the code from before he was there?
Kinda tired of the outrage machine.
