Are homeless people going to start mysteriously disappearing now
Are homeless people going to start mysteriously disappearing now
I’m not so sure. I check in on the hot mess that is Twitter from time to time and it looks to me like the advertisers are returning from the ads that I have seen. I think it comes down to how willing Musk is to burn money on when Twitter actually dies and I bet he can find friends of a certain type to sell equity too to keep the shit show going.
I think we have reached the point that those that are willing to hold their noses are staying and those that aren’t have gone and that’s your new user figures.
I’d assume they would provide a backup from before the announcement for the training.
Service could change at any point though. If new American owners are smart they are not going to break something that’s obviously working.
The end user won’t be aware anything happened. If a ban kicks in then they will start to notice issues when the app updates don’t occur.
Mac don’t stop supporting hardware on their prior OS’s?
Tay all over again. Except this time it will be training on apartheid billionaires midlife crisis
A shit pie ?
I thought they were using the ml domain as they were cheap / free ? Or am I missing the joke?
I never got the argument that it’s hard to sign up to. I think the main issues are that people want content from media entities that may not be present or welcome - legacy media etc. This could be where threads.net fills the gap but then it sounds like they will be blocked from a lot of instances.
I have worked around it via press.coop but they don’t cover everything. I also follow more journalists directly than I did on Twitter. I don’t miss Twitter and find Mastodon more informative but I’m sure that’s because of the information I’m looking for.
So basically we’re pretty much back to paying for a TV package.
Personally I think he was attempting a pump and dump and got caught out by the market downturn that hit just after he brought in.
Feels more like a 300 cuts
Was a interesting reaction from some in the fediverse stating they would block the BBC instance etc. In reality how welcome are entity’s that are seen as corporate?
I also cannot understand why the BBC news is not live, possibly they are experimenting with the moderation and management elements. I guess the news feed would get hit harder than Radio 4.
Tbh this sounds like it’s more about cost cutting and “toxic” twitter is the excuse to cut down on their use and move resources to other platforms. The fact they have left other accounts up would seem to hint that they will cope with “toxic” users to a certain point.
Still good to see bigger entity’s leaving.
Agreed. Either of the end results is a win for Zuck
Could be that BBC employees can have their own accounts on mastodon going forward
Awesome news! Hopefully more media follows suit!
Subtle af
The average user is not even going to know this was a thing
