AndrewP posted:I'm off of Twitter and haven't made a Threads account - are you folks seeing a major migration over there by people you follow? absolutely not. anyone who was a big twitter user who opened a threads account is still posting on twitter -- threads is just another thing to post about on twitter Threads or any other service will only truly start sapping users from Twitter when something happens to make Twitter truly unusable rather than just unreliable and mildly annoying.

kw0134 posted:Maybe, but there's a difference between writing a thinly veiled Twitter rant as a complaint (see, e.g., any number of Trump's civil suits that got dismissed) and this suit, which is a perfectly reasonable complaint that follows both the substantive and procedural laws in question. Wachtell is free to dispute the facts either in substance or as they are framed, and it may yet turn out the whole thing is a fabrication (which will get the lawyer sanctioned, see also the various Trump suits that get dismissed with a swing of a 20lb mallet) but the actual allegation isn't some galaxy brain nonsense that is clearly insane. Oh, granted 100%. I am factoring in my amusement at the whole shebang though, which easily makes up the difference.

This isn't my area at all but it seems facially plausible, like not a slam dunk in either direction. Presume they will eventually settle for some fraction of the amount rather than go to trial though.

Your honor, sir, giving Meta a loving market full of extremely discouraged customers because I am an irresponsible dipshit and a fucklord is 100% a piracy attempt of my platform so thereby I am entitled to damages and no I did not complain about my buddy @jack's bluesky which also appears to be very similar, why do you ask

So far, Threads seems like a place where you can type a message. I don't think it's any more or any less. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Presume they will eventually settle for some fraction of the amount rather than go to trial though. Like maybe they do graft but the sheer capitalism of coming off as a bad firm to represent an acquisition seems like a reason to do good work and argue in court that good work is what you do.

nah, Truth was all Nazis from the beginning, driving away normies Twitter is getting there but Trump returning might keep it alive Trump posting on some normal social mastodon instance (as if lol) or Threads (lmao he has to outwardly pretend Meta isn't extremely friendly to the alt right) would bring in Nazis but it would bring in even more journos and normies

Jestery posted:Lol that Trump successfully called a shot in not returning to twitter He has made his own little fiefdom, pathetic and small as it is. There was nothing really for him to gain in going back to Twitter and being potentially under someone else's control once again. It would also be a tacit admission that his network failed, and Trump wasn't going to let that happen.
