he literally does not understand the idea that people have families and friends that they want to spend time with. his employees are his family and his stakeholders are his friends.

I haven't seen anyone mention this, but Twitter got rid of their Moments feature today.

https://twitter.com/TwitterSupport/status/1600567232764985348

A lot of artists used the feature to collect their work in galleries; I'm seeing people in the quote tweets talking about how this is what's finally pushed them to places like Tumblr.

EDIT: One person suggested the microservice broke and nobody knows how to fix it, so they're trying to spin it as just discontinuing the service. If that's true, then lol and lmao.

They literally just launched a new feature “Twitter spaces” which was launched by a pop up stating “What the %#^# is that thing?!?! Let’s find out together.” So I still don’t know what it does since they were trying to be cute about it but it’s a strange time to downsize your features and say you’re focusing on improvements

Yeah, a few pages back but my god, the layers of desolation just in these few words alone had me nearly doubled over. So not the official site (I assume it's a video game thing), but a fansite, and not the biggest fansite, but the second-biggest? And it's called hellgate-guru? What, was planethellgate already taken?

twitter spaces has been around for ages, you just got the onboarding message very late for some reason

spaces was their answer to clubhouse, which nobody uses anymore, and now nobody uses spaces either besides crypto nerds

they roll out features to different audiences too not just by what app you use. many of them are experiments that never get full release. at least they used to when it was a semi functional company

I think that he didn't actually play the game, maybe stole the build from one of his sycophants, because no way could he dedicate time to this since he's always working so drat much, right?

I'm sure they've fully squared this with USA and EU financial regulatory bodies with months of review and oversight in preparation to ensure customer transactional data is secured and managed correctly.

And certainly not just farted out on a whim by Elon's now functionally-enslaved H-1B coders in his code mine.
