Oh boy, he’s about to do something stupid.
Didn’t he say a long time ago it’s going to become “X”
Allowing Elon Musk to run a company is like electing a kid who thinks the government should give everyone free icecream and make crime ok on Thursdays.
Someone needs to find him a role where he can feel like he’s helping without getting in everyone else’s way.
I mean that role was SpaceX. Give them lots of money and get cool rockets. It was going great, and it was great for his image as it’s not very political. But I guess he got bored.
When you see what a massive moron he is it makes you wonder all of the people behind the scenes at spacex that had to deal with his stupid and make the company succeed despite him.
Every day some engineer would have to answer his questions. “Can we remove brown?” “Pardon me?” “The color, brown, can we remove it?” “I’m sorry I don’t understand, remove it from where? I don’t think our rocket has any b-” “No, I mean from the world. Maybe with our satellites?” “I…don’t think that’s something we’ll be able to-” “How about birds? I don’t like them. They remind me of god.” “We…we’ll look into it.”
Twitter had a great thing going on. It was not perfect but I never thought it would get absolutely ruined in such a short amount of time
It’s interesting how everyone keeps saying it’s ruined while I personally don’t notice any difference. If I didn’t read posts about it on reddit/lemmy I wouldn’t know any changes have been made
Edit: I wonder what the downvotes are for?
Pushing blue checks to the top of every comment thread has amplified the worst voices on the platform.
If that really is so then that’s quite a stupid feature. I don’t personally read comment threads there so I haven’t noticed
Oh it’s very true. No badges are at the very bottom every single time. Stupid comments with blue badges are always top.
I wonder if there’s some add-on that automatically filters out comments from blue checks. That way they’d be self-selecting themselves out of our feeds
Just like a year ago it was considered an essential part of modern discourse and society. The media was heavily dependent on Twitter. Now, Twitter has lost a lot of influence.
If Elon had simply kept his stupid mouth shut, he wouldn’t have been forced to buy the company, let alone for such a high price. Once purchased, if he had been less of a maniac and just managed Twitter in a boring way that maintained the status quo, then it would still be better off today than it currently is. Everything Elon has done has made the company less valuable and driven away users.
on purpose. by design. with intent.
But what if he’s just a fucking idiot?
It can be Messtodon. Like mastodon but far worse.
Muskodon
He will call it shitter or something.
Whenever I click on an Elon Musk post, it’s to guess which household cleaning product he’s huffing this week. I’m never disappointed.
