Called it. Elon’s doing exactly what I thought he would do: https://aus.social/@ajsadauskas/109979152813584947

Twitter is dead.

There is no point in trying to hold on to what Twitter used to be. What Twitter used to be no longer exists.

It died the moment Elon walked in the building.

Anything posted there since then has been free content on his everything app and potential crypto scam, X: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/jul/23/twitter-elon-musk-says-he-wants-to-change-companys-bird-logo

        Everything apps are really popular and profitable in Asia.

        Not that I want one though.

        I cannot understand this either: we have an everything app, it’s called our homescreen, why would you use that to launch another one?

        So many ways:

        • frequent outages
        • spaces drop out frequently
        • blue membership gives credibility to fraudsters
        • I haven’t been able to reply on mobile for the last 2 weeks
        • blue features just stopped working a few weeks ago and nothings happened (dark mode, custom icons)
        • analytics are inaccurate and have large gaps
        • it’s awash with bots
        • algo works against ux
