Again? How many times will Musk try to sneak this through? Eventually he will stop pretending and just block it.
NYT should just leave the service like other media sites.

That is just so petty. People can still go to the NY Times easily. Just not via Twitter. What's the point? Pettiness. That's the point.
That’s you and me. That doesn’t apply to most people. I have rss feeds to follow what interests me. But Twitter for a lot of people is just that, a glorified rss reader. They follow some people, some news outlets and that’s it. The number of people who visit NYT organically is, in my assumption, less than 100k. I genuinely believe that services like Google News, Meta & Twitter is where NYT gets most of their clicks from.
The NYT has 8.6 million digital-only subscribers. Where's that "100k" coming from ?
I seriously doubt your numbers. Granted, I'm older, but I subscribe to NYT and go there almost daily to read the headlines, a few stories, and a couple games. I hit a few others nearly daily as well for different takes. About 20 years ago, I used Google News, but I switched a long time ago to direct paper access because I didn't want to be fed only what I want to hear. I want a more holistic news diet.
Ditto. I was sick of sensationalism and click bait trash. Their research articles are also really well done and intelligent. I subscribe so I at least have one decent source without the mental burden of constantly having to sort fact from fiction.
The richest or well second richest man on the planet has the maturity of a kindergardner with conduct disorder. This is what the market decided needed to be rewarded more than almost any other person on the planet.
So much for freedom of speech.
Yet those spineless cravens in the New York Times are still using Twitter.
Burn it to the ground already hurry up
I love watching villains fighting villains.
I just get to root for the carnage. The Neoliberal Paper of Record vs. King Libertarian, fight!
Genuinely curious, this isn't snark, what do you suggest in the US that's better than the NY Times? I mean, NPR, of course, but I can't really detect much of a difference between the two.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
