Elon Musk admits X 'may fail, as so many have predicted'
(www.businessinsider.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
"no, not really" is the answer to all of those, honestly. But I rarely use twitter, hence why I was asking. Just blocked Elon by the way, really curious if what you're saying about blocking him is true.
Cool you barely use twitter and didn't notice any of the declines detailed above but "no, not really" thanks for the high quality discussion
Are we speaking a different language or something? The comment above prefaces all questions "you haven’t noticed " - no I haven't noticed none of those precisely because I don't use twitter much. What's the discrepancy here?
You asked how elon ruined the experience, someone explained it to you, you then said you don't even use the platform and hadn't noticed any of that. Like. Why did you ask in the first place and why are you dismissing the fairly detailed and accurate answer you got?
Edit: I'll leave my response but I think you're actually just curious from the perspective of someone who doesn't use twitter a lot. I think I knee jerk reacted as though you were trying to defend musk as his fans are fairly obnoxious. Having reread this whole conversation, I think I'm coming off more aggressive than I should be.
Anyway, yeah you're right you probably wouldn't have noticed the negative changes musk has brought about. As a former daily user of twitter I'm fairly angry at the destruction of the site. I think twitter was an extremely important venue, it gave regular people direct access to interaction with the rich and powerful, it gave access to unfiltered news from on the ground people and it allowed people from remote/poorer parts of the world a way to interact with the west. Losing that in the society we live in is a real bummer.
