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?
