You know how people looked at the dumb decisions of #StocktonRush and said don't get in the #Titan ?
Don't get into an #ElonMusk #Tesla or #SpaceX
When I gave twitter a go to try and fill the Apollo shape hole in me I noticed the toxic algorithim and brain dead users so I am glad that I found Lemmy. I am just really confused as to what Elon is doing? He seems to be throwing money away for the fun of it.
He’s obviously playing 6-D chess, and us plebs just can’t see the bigger picture /s
I have a friend who literally believe this. He's so positive about everything Elon does. I don't want to waste time arguing, so I just ignore it.
Terrible decision from Elon.
Phrased like Trump would say
LOL I do not miss Twitter a bit.
I loooooove seeing Twitter unalive itself
Elongated Muskrat throttling legitemate twitter users to keep AI out the door seems to be a good thing for the Fediverse & Mastodon in particular.
Plus that makes two services on their way to the grave on the guise of "keeping AI out." *slow clap*
I had a Twitter account for about a week that I posted with, after that I made a new one and never posted. The most toxic disgusting social media site I have ever been on. The one and only good thing about it was how the local governments where I lived used to make all announcements with it. I plan to bring my kids to the reading event at the library, better check Twitter. Oh it got moved an hour later. Also the local mass transit system used it.
Guess Mastodon is gonna get hit by a wave of newcomers...
Putting that 44 billion to work
I wonder if reddit, twitter and youtube all got around a table one day and decided that no, actually, screw the users entirely.
Because they are all doing really bizzare things.
How slow does this mf read?
Crawlers and scrapper bots consume a fuckload of traffic, that much is true. But I think it's a bit too late, there's already enough "twitter warehouse of posts in X language" to feed most AI needs, at least for coming up with short answers.
Also, I can't believe Elon did something that could be generally seen as a good thing overall (forcing people to spend less time on twitter)
