How much longer is Twitter going to last?
	A few weeks
	A few months
	A few years
	About as long as the rest of humanity

I support Musk in his Twitter endeavors. He's doing a fantastic job putting it on a downward spiral and I hope he continues to do so.

What compelled Twitter to sue Musk? Was he just at a point of no return?

The board wanted the idiot's money.

Do you think on phones or tablets that they can track at the level of what one�s eyes are looking at?

Edit: I think I remember seeing patent stuff for that posted at some point. No idea when that was.

The tech definitely exists. You'll see eye tracker stuff in e-sports streams.

Fry your brain, now in a literal sense with the NEW neuralink social app!

It would be on brand for Elon musk to create something like sword art online.

As always, logging out solves all our problems!

If you're still having problems after logging out, try closing the tab with twixxer open.

Something that's buried in the New Yorker article, Musk is on Ketamine. Supposedly microdosing it, but it's believed by a bunch of his colleagues he's actually dosing it with how much he's taking.

Twitter is a special company and it takes a boy with a special perspective to run it man.

I saw the "BanTheADL" trend and assumed it was for the other reasons, having it be just straight up nazi poo poo seems almost pedestrian. Good job on turning your platform into a Chan board, Musk

I really do wonder just how many accounts would go inactive if they required even just a one cent monthly fee.

Eventually they'll be streaming the ads wirelessly to our brains so you can't avoid them, Futurama style.

Wreckage of popular social media service begins shutting off its supply of new users.

What're you talking about? After they ban everyone without a checkmark, they're going to start raking in so much money when they come back!

Elon Musk, probably

Yeah, "don't trust Elon Musk with money" is like the one lesson everyone should have learned from this whole ordeal. They should have known this before, but for some reason banks were willing to piss away millions on him so he could buy a website for a funny meme number of dollars so I guess some people were unaware of this valuable piece of advice.

You'll run out of sanity looooooooooooooonnnnnnnggggg before the world runs out of idiots.

By 2025 fewer than 5% of people will tweet. We will create a generation who has never tweeted.

And everyone said Elon couldn't improve the future.

Been seeing a relatively new style of advertisement (to me anyway) on my Instagram feed lately.

It�s always a 2 picture/video post. The first video/picture is something I like like a kitten or a house plant or something. You watch it and then scroll to the next video in the series expecting to see more of your new best cat friend video but surprise! It�s an advertisement for a vacuum cleaner.

This is monstrous. They're coming for the last pure thing on the internet.

You're not wrong but I never understood the appeal of Twitter. It's just another poorly moderated Internet forum that will inevitably outrage you and deteriorate your mental health.

The question is whether Meta has learned from the last time, where the only way to contact key engineers was via messenger, which was also down.

Let's hope they haven't, the world is better off without Meta's offerings. Also that's an amazing self own.

Twitter has embraced the "this MF paid for twitter" meme by removing the option to hide your blue check if you got premium (or were a big enough celebrity to have premium thrust upon you). You'll wear your ~~scarlet~~ azure letter and like it

Surprised to see someone with a username like haveblue being critical about people being forced to show their blue. Seems sus... :tinfoil:
