i would redownload twitter if that became a thing

But then people would just complain about the seals and it would be upsetting. I suggest we dedicate it entirely to terribly wrong conspiracy theories and rename it idiot central. We could make a new, shiny website for the seals. They deserve it.

This is by far the most intelligent solution I have heard in this discussion.

lmaooo yeah this is the best possible scenario haha

oof

this aged like milk lol

Every month are so this viseo just ages worse and worse

Renaming twitter to “X” 💀

If we are being meta, then twitter people would go on to become everyday people we see around in the world. They are this vicious only on that app that brings out the worst in all of us.

facebook or Reddit

They would INSTANTLY gather in ANY platform that's available and not too tolerant of any other views than that of the platform refugees. As long as the loudmouths can DRAG and silence anyone else they are OK. Don't worry.

I’d be more concerned about the employees tbh. There’s like 7,500 ppl who’d be out of jobs if that’s what happens.

@@winterhusky404 - It's not gonna happen, obviously.

Privatizing would make it where it's more of his "standards" of free speech not having to rely or consult a board for certain issues, take that as you will (by his standards it sounds good with his more law focused stance to me atleast) The subscription service isn't for the site as a whole but is to get verified on the app (you pay and get a blue check and some extra features) the site as a whole will still be free and probably stay the same for 75% of people.

@@guywholikesheelies3231 any updates?

It was already private, genius. A publicly traded corporation is privately owned by its shareholders. In the case of Twitter, according to Jack, it was subject to a hostile takeover by Paul Singers' company, which meant that Twitter would moderate content according to whatever Singer wanted. See how the world looks different when you actually pay attention to things? Maybe you should try that sometime. And what is your argument anyway? "These guys don't believe in free speech!" cries person who doesn't believe in free speech. This isn't exactly the knockout argument you seem to imagine it is. Don't ever post anything on the internet ever again. It's a waste of everybody's time. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

​@@glyndwr15 publicly traded means anyone can buy in you doofus.

@@spacemanx9595 Yes, that's exactly the point. Which is what Singer did, which is why he could censor users. So if you take the company private and don't allow people like Singer to buy it, then you, as the owner, can decide if you're going to censor or not. You have the reading comprehension of a 6th grader.

hell yeah, an older gatekeeper

@@vaishnavisingh9244 GATEKEEPER FOR LIFE!!❤️😜

we stan gatekeepers!

@@kirbbb1995 You know it baby!

this is very sweet and made me happy to read, love to you and yours!

just as the founding fathers intended 😊

Liberals marxists pro Biden tears 🙃... yummy 😎

@@ally939 yes, as Thomas Jefferson famously tweeted: “The revolutionary war wasn’t necessary. Britain actually tried to give us freedom but George needs-a-Washington made us fight anyway so he could claim the victory was his doing.” Which George Washington famously quote tweeted with the reply: “Nah fam, that’s cap” and the carrier pidgeon who founded Twitter was like “Tom, this is my private app, and that was a total lie, but my claws are tied and I can’t stop you because I have no control over what can and can’t be said on, and who I do and do not allow to use my privately owned site despite it being my property.

I do wonder if the elon musk jet tracker account is gonna stay up under his rule :)

@@Emnms68 a carrier pigeon didn’t found Twitter, a Mountain bluebird did. Why do you think the logo is based off a Mountain bluebird and not a pigeon

god as someone who is neither American/British nor Japanese/Korean, I know for a fact that it just baffles me on how entitled some people are towards things they had no part in making

@@vaishnavisingh9244 i'm pretty sure korea was colonized horribly by japan so i wouldn't group them together lol

@@unoriginal1086 I was talking about the cultures though lol

Same. I left over a year ago and my mental health has improved so much. Even with a huge blacklist of words, so much awful stuff still made it to my feed and it was awful, yet I was somehow addicted to it. The only thing I miss is my favorite artists but I still check on them every so often. Best decision I made

yeah i got suspended 😭 and I had that account for a little over 6 months…i was upset at first because I lost all my contact with my mutuals. but I feel so much better & more alert??

I deleted mine a while back and it’s been so nice! It’s so easy to doom scroll and see fighting over and over. No one can say anything without being attacked it was stressful.

I never went on twitter, cause I know how easy it is to download art you didn't make from there. Atleast Insta and Facebook have protection against that, twitter provide none.

i love tumblr

He is basically Lyle Lanley from the Simpsons, but much, much worse.

@@bengallup9321 He's Lyle Lanley, Mr Burns and Artie Ziff all rolled into one

No no no! Elon make car with battery! Elon make space ship! Elon make best transportation method (one of those cool tubes at the bank drivethru, but for battery car) Elon make internet payment and internet dog coin! Elon is the answer to all of our biggest problems (the inability to break the terms of service on our favorite app)

You can’t tell his Stans/fanboys that. The same people that Stan everything Trump does are the same ones that do the same for Elon. Im sure the fans don’t mind since they’ve been annoying and edgy since high school.

It also gives him credit for like... creating memes that he had nothing to do with until they were already popular. Mans doesnt make memes and he has never "memed us" he literally just rides the coat tails of gen z internet users as a PR stunt. Pretty typical tho, definitely not the first time ive seen him be given full credit for someone elses work/invention

Don't forget white supremacy and malicious misinformation

Liberals marxists pro Biden tears 🙃... yummy 😎, inflation is all yours

@@aheendwhz1 holy fuck this comment was a roller coaster.

@@TDPEquinox lol yeah🤣

Open source is generally made with public intrest, you can't really monetize Open Source as much as non-Open Source, it pays a lot less. Please give the devs some credit, most devs who write for free do it out of a passion project, they know the value of their skill so it's harder to con them into doing shit for free unless they are intrested in it. As a person who does want to get into tech, I think Open Source is the only viable solution to big cooperations getting unlimited power and control over people.

@@vaishnavisingh9244 Yes you are correct about people writing code for open source do it for passion. I adore that and fully support truly open-source code. What I'm saying is that most open-source programs are non profitable, like GIMP for example. People make things for the program to help the community. In the other hand Twitter as a platform is not made with the public in mind, it usually pushes people to be in a bubble , so they can see more of what they like and therefore spending more time in it. So think of how one of the first moves they are doing is making it private, so people can't invest in it. Devs that do things for love don't need a return, but they are gonna let people code for Twitter , but they will pic and choose what will be integrated for the main public. Again Twitter is not like GIMP or stuff like that, it's a huge company that even deal with political power so it's hard for me to see it really showing it's full code in a open-source way, but instead showing what can be easily customized so people can produce for them, without needing their spendings. You see what I mean? (Sorry for the long comment)

How bout I do A N Y W A Y S~ ~ ~ ~

‼️‼️‼️

Twitter is not a democracy and cant make laws The internet in its entirety is not government domain, and twitter has no moral or legal obligation to let you say anything and everything on their platform

@@poopymcmonke Thanks for proving you didn’t understand my comment.

@@whatifschrodingersboxwasacofin i understand perfectly. I just know that the constitutional right to free speech has nothing to do with how social media site owners manage and moderate their platforms. It doesnt matter if threats of violence /were/ covered by the first amendment, that still wouldnt mean that twitter has to oblige

@@poopymcmonke Maybe you should have been a little less America-centric, then. I wasn’t talking about any Amendment or any Constitutional right. Of course the US Constitution doesn’t apply. It’s a global app. Your laws don’t apply to the rest of us, remember?? So, no. No, you didn’t get my point. Not even close.

Yes, there are signs that he's a blibbering dummy. Any of his conversations w grimes.....

YOOO SLAYYY, that's so rad dude B)

Didn't age well.

the only good thing to come out of twitter is “its morbin time”

I think that when your smaller, the algorithms don't show your stuff to as many random people so you can curate your experience more. when you get more popular, algorithms push your tweets to more random people who don't get it. Also, maybe your posts arent as inflammatory, and the most controversial tweets tend to be pushed by their algorithms? tldr: i think it's all the algorithms pushing the buttons of the angriest people on the app that makes it such a hellscape

@@marzipan2555 That’s been my hypothesis as well though I still say “inflammatory” stuff & get button pushing crap sent my way too, just not on the level of others! lol

i wouldnt call an account with 1200 followers small for twitter lol. but it def has nothing to do with size, its more to do with what kind of content you interact with. if you interact with political tweets, twitter will show you political tweets. it’s also based on who you follow, a lot of my feed is stuff other people retweeted, liked, or simply from people that my mutuals follow

Honestly I find most niche communities pretty wholesome, though tbh I don’t use Twitter. I personally think it’s bc fewer people are exposed to it so it’s less common for a bad apple to find it, though there’s probably a better explanation for it.

Update: 2024, my twitter account had a few posts go viral and it made my experience a living hell! I now get more useless piggybacked tweets from people spamming crypto bullshit! Twitter (will never call it X) has only gotten worse but I have still hung in there because of my friends that are there.

Also, I was here waaaay before 30k lol.

Liberal tears 🙃... yummy 😎

Where’s that one reply

He funded a coup in Bolivia for lithium.

NO FRR

that was dumb ...for like the two days it was a thing

Will see you in few years when Twitter only becomes better

Gonna just comment so that in a couple years I can make fun one of you 2

Just gonna watch you 3 as a neutral

...I personally have not much hope for it, but I suppose I would love to watch which one of you would be correct.

Why are you so into this app? It annoys and drains anyone who uses it and still you are so addicted. It's beyond me but it makes clear why Musk bought the platform.

Epitome of not funny? While I dont personally find him funny you should probably educate yourself on humor being subjective. The world doesn't revolve around you, buddy!

Just because she called him a meme lord, doesn't mean she finds him funny goofy

@@BadGrief He is objectively and subjectively not funny.

@@demetrian7856 in your opinion*

@@BadGrief do you know what objectively means?

I’ll try but I hate this world for so long lol

he is too poor for Coke if we are honest here

@@vaishnavisingh9244 yeah im just joshin

You can't go onto a single post without bought some content farms clocking up the replies and making the site unusable. I use it to follow artists and Jesus Christ is the app worse than ever

Not really, you can't attack someone legally for words. Different courts will go about it differently based on situations but as a whole you as an individual cannot attack or harass someone for words alone. Atleast in person, you can bug someone online and they'll probably block you but then it comes into question of do you support full free speech or just speech you agree with, 90% of people can't differentiate the two so that's always a mess.

yikes aged too well :(
