What I think is surprising is how many still use the fucking platform. It’s completely neutered. Companies shouldn’t be posting news to it because unless you have an account you probably can’t fucking view it.
I don’t really see a difference in Twitter pre- and post-Musk.
It is literally built for this, for broadcasting with minimal discussion afterwards.
I left Twitter a bit before Musk got it because I realized Reddit was better for discussing and obtaining informed opinions.
And now I left Reddit.
That’s not what I mean. I mean literally not being able to access stuff when you’re not logged in. How am I supposed to know what this company is posting?
I think this could have been the normal evolution of the social network under anyone else than Musk.
I repeat, it has always been built this way, for broadcasting.
And I am sorry to fire on the Red Cross, but Mastodon is just the same: the only reason it is somewhat better than what Twitter was is that it is novel and barely populated and therefore elicits what in Italy we call mountain path courtesy.
Same. I’m surprised so many people still use for networking at all. I’ll see people post links to the site and I’m just like “well I wish I could’ve seen that. Oh well.”
