Mastodon for the win!

More like incredibly amusing.

I think he's just that much of an attention whore, creating drama where it doesn't exist.

Elon will probably change these numbers after he sees the bounce rate…. Problem is you can’t get around the bots scraping for information.

It's been a really suspect timeline of Russia's invasion of Ukraine being met with global backing of Ukraine largely on Twitter, Musk's meeting with Putin, Musk's buyout of Twitter, and subsequent evisceration of the site.

I’ve heard a lot that it’s also something to do with KSA and MbS. Don’t forget, musk also kowtowed to Erdogan’s demands to censor twitter in Türkiye during the election in May

It's not cunning or malice. It's hubris and incompetence.

Elon Musk is my idol, as he is killing twitter rn

[–] ArcheTelos@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sometimes the real DDOS are the companies we buy along the way

Speaking as someone who never really plugged into Twitter much in the first place: the notion that tweets have any sort of real value and that putting caps on consuming them is a meaningful control measure is the funniest fucking thing. Like no doubt he I actually trying to ruin it, that's happening. But this is clearly supposed to elicit some kind of reaction, and I just can't imagine feeling like, "oh, no, this only 600?" 600 of what? Brainfarts? Serious ideas that, if they were written by serious people would be in a long form medium? It's like saying "you can go to the grocery store but you can only buy 60 chew toys for your dog per day". Like, okay, I wasn't going to do that anyway and I think it's funny that you thought I was going to, or that I'd care about this new limitation.
