Hellsite indeed more broken than usual. All bookmarks (a thing Elon pushed as incredibly important) now impossible to load. And can't see any of a user's timeline. Replies tab, yes. Main tweet timeline, no.

And he wonders why 100 million people signed up to Threads. All that site needs to do is make a dedicated "Following" tab so you can see the poo poo you want to see, and add a web and dedicated iPad version, and it's 90% of the way to being a full-fledged Twitter replacement. (The trickier final 10% is being willing to allow adult content, actually having a good moderation policy, and leveraging all that Zuck money into getting the site embedded into stuff like game logins, website embedding, and all the other cross internet access that a Twitter account currently gets you that the dozens of Twitter wannabies do not).

You can tell he's really not happy that Threads is out there because he's already gone back on the "must log in" and maximum number of Tweets viewed ideas around the same time Threads launched. The lawsuit over Meta hiring former Twitter people is more telling and means he's clearly afraid Threads will kill Twitter if it keeps getting more users and bigger accounts people would want to see just completely leaving Twitter.

He's also reversed course on Tweetdeck. You can make it go back to normal now.

Elon Musk sues Wachtell law firm to recoup fees from Twitter buyout

quote:

July 7 (Reuters) - Elon Musk has sued the elite law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to recover most of a $90 million fee it received from Twitter for defeating his bid to walk away from his $44 billion buyout of the social media company.

The complaint by Musk's X Corp, which owns Twitter, was filed on Wednesday in the California Superior Court in San Francisco.
Suing the lawyers who made him buy twitter for being paid for doing their job by twitter.

What a loving baby.

We all like to giggle at Elon hawking imaginary metrics on the assumption that he knows twitter's metrics are poo poo and he thinks he's fooling people, but I'd just like to remind people that an alternate reading exists.

It's also funny that they're bragging about breaking the record for the metric days after implementing it.
