Tweets from blocked twits will still show up for you if they're embedded, say in this thread. I don't think thats a new post-elon thing. It's been that way for a while. They should be blocked for you if you visit the twitter url or use the app.

The Ublock rule wipes out the embeds too so I never see his dumb tweets unless someone posts a screenshot

I tried to scroll down far enough below the Musk tweet to find the first non-bluecheck dicksucking response, but my old phone ran out of memory and the browser closed after the first thousand or so

This is how the majority of people leave poo poo like Twitter or Facebook. Most will simply stop using it but won't bother deleting their profile because :effort:. They'll just delete the app and call if a day.

No, Facebook literally does have something like 3 billion active accounts across its platforms (they may not be de-duplicated across products and represent individual people, but they are active in a given period). This is actually why most SEC reporting for public companies with business models based on audience reach focuses on active users. They don’t report dormant/inactive accounts that don’t engage at all in a given month.

My twitter got suspended a few years ago and it seems I can neither delete it or unsuspend it, which is necessary for deletion.

I bet facebook is counting tracker pings as activity so they never have dormant users so long as javascript exists

Of all the lovely things Zuck does, I don’t think manipulating the active audience data is one. Meta owns the most popular social media and messaging platforms of all time. Their concern is not that they aren’t a legitimate behemoth, but that their audience growth is now anaemic (and some of their products are even shrinking in some territories), and that their market share with younger people leaves a lot to be desired.

Also, if he genuinely wanted to inflate the user numbers, then a consequence would be that the revenue per user metric would go down, and investors don’t like that either.
