𝕏 / Twitter / X, the Social Media Platform Formerly Known as Twitter / "MUSK OWNS TWITTER"

Let's just be clear about one thing.
The people that you see in this thread beating their chests about how they want Twitter to die were fucking ecstatic less than a year ago when Elon took over, and their posts are easy to find.
Now when they are seeing that the Chief Manchild is driving this into the ground and that there are no more libtards to be owned, just Ching Cheongus and Shelllllllenbergers, they have switched their narrative and suddenly are above the fray and distant, mocking observers of an inevitable death.
The sad truth about a lot of users on this site is that they are obsessively in search of some Internet daddy or another, always fawning over some celebrity or another, and always expecting that the Great Huwhite Hope blumpf or muskovitch will perform some miracle for their ass.
Permission to switch narrative denied lmao
Jack Dorsey is not going to have sex with you, dude. Musk buying Twitter was a Xanatos Gambit for me. No matter what hapened, I win becuase I fucking hate Twatter and the people that use it. The fact you thought people viewed Musk as another Trump shows how you completely misunderstood what was going on.
 
Some insight from a data techie, though he lost me after shilling the blue tick in the end.

Archive.ph is being fucky as well, but I saved the link in my notes just in case.
"ingress and egress" of data going "in and out"
Those megabytes of data needed to load a single line tweet sure do add up.
Now if only there way for Applications to Programmatically Interface with the backend to request just the raw information to alleviate egress…

Anyway, I’m sure such measures would keep the publicly posted information securely away from the prying eyes of state actors, while allowing Twitter to shield users from overreaching data requests.

That’s why there should be an additional “China or porn companies” 6 gorrilion dollars a month pricing tier, which would leave them with absolutely no choice other than to devastate their wallets, with additional roadblocks and restrictions which would definitely inconvenience those "highly skilled" "professional staff" way more than the average user.

My brother in Christ, calm the fuck down.

I've said it before, I'll keep saying it - either Elon somehow, by some act of God/Allah/Jersh, makes Twitter profitable, or he runs it into the ground never to return. Whichever happens will be entertaining to watch, for different reasons. As is, it looks like we're running to the latter, and considering how much of a net negative Twitter's been in general, I doubt anyone would complin about that. Elon is a Sped, but he makes people we laugh at angry, which gets us more content - anything beyond that is gravy.

I'm just sitting here laughing, wondering which between Twitter and Reddit is going to finish their Death Spiral first.
 
Does this limitation thing only count on your feed or timeline or whatever it is?

Cus I never use that, there's a half dozen accounts I'll go to direct and then if I want to find something I'll use search. I haven't been limited at all
 
And archiving lazy artists impossible. Ever find a cool artist only to discover they exclusively upload to Twitter so you have to see all their memes and faggot opinions to see their art.
I train SD LoRAs as a hobby, so I need a large dataset of images from an artist to fine-tune. Fun fact Twitter's web API also has restrictions on how far back you can go. It's bad to the point where Gallery-DL isn't getting enough anymore. Worst part is most of the interesting Twitter artists have Patreons, but choose not to upload their content to their Patreon.

Do you know what she was banned for? I see her tweets stop abruptly in December 2020, but I cannot find any news story about what did her in.

There was an incident in 2018 when she insulted Valerie Jarrett's appearance, which the mob idiotically claimed was racist and she got her fired from her own show over, but she wasn't booted from Twitter for it.

Twitter banning you is like null making a corn joke about Ralph. I wonder where this journey will lead us.

Most of those guys, myself included, never gave a fuck either way.

One objective positive is Elon Musk pulled down the curtain and showed how bloated Big Tech had become. The mass-firing of HR faggots is a net positive and he kick started a purge in the Tech industry. Elon Musk also exposed the sheer amount of bots used to bloat Big Techs numbers and show what a scam it really was.

I never used Twitter, it was just funny seeing the retards on there chimpout at having their astroturfed echo chamber ruined. If Elon Musk actually improves twitter, fine. Seeing Twitter fuck off for good is also great.

Can't remember if it was specifically what she was banned for, but she had a habit of talking about the members of the merchant's guild.

I could be wrong, but I thought it was making a comparison between Valerie Jarret and the Planet of the Apes.

She is Jewish herself so that is unlikely. She is however vocally pro-Trump and implied the 2020 election was stolen, both big no-nos.

That is the 2018 tweet I referenced above. She wasn't banned till two years later so I don't see how that could be the cause, unless Twitter was extremely slow to react.


For those who didn't follow the 2018 story, here's a brief overview:

She was exchanging barbs with Valerie Jarrett and at one point tweeted, "muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj". Barr was insulting VJ's appearance and referring to her Muslim (Iranian) roots. VJ, it turns out, is part-black, which Barr understandably didn't know since she doesn't clearly appear so. An online mob immediately denounced this tweet as "racist" assuming Barr was calling black people apes (which she was not). Barr for her part was confused about this and at first said Muslims aren't a race (since she thought it was that part that got people angry). She also later explained she was on Ambien at the time (which does indeed often cause people to act thoughtlessly).

In any case, everyone from the media and the industry promoted the false story that she'd made an anti-black racial attack on VJ. One news story after another denounced her supposed racism, despite her futile protestations that she thought VJ was white. She was unceremoniously fired from the revival of Roseanne of which she was the star, which was rebranded as The Conners with her character written out. ABC issued a simping statement that it was the right thing to do since racism is intolerable.

There were no brakes and no common sense which would clear up the simple misunderstanding. After all, the narrative that racists are everywhere needs constant feeding.
 
She is Jewish herself so that is unlikely.
She may be but she definitely has on many occasions. She just likes saying offensive things.
Hmm, maybe I'm confusing her with someone else.
In Bizarre Antisemitic Rant, Roseanne Barr Claims Holocaust 'Never Happened'
The actor, who is Jewish, said that 'nobody died in the Holocaust. That’s the truth. It should happen - 6 million Jews should die right now because they cause all the problems in the world'

This is another fake story. This was obvious sarcasm. In the longer clip she satirically says that (paraphrasing and summarizing) Joe Biden won 81 million votes, and the Holocaust never happened. Her point being these are both absurd claims.

That didn't stop Jewish organizations from flipping out.

I know it's obviously edgy sarcasm. Just saying she actually did say it and has a history of saying such things. And doing things like deliberately horribly botching the National Anthem just to piss people off. She's always been an irl shitposter like that, it's just no longer acceptable (and people were pissed about the anthem thing but it wasn't a career ender to hurt someone's fee fees 25 years ago).
 
So we might just luck out in the end, the best possible thing will happen. Twitter will be run into the ground and if we are really lucky it would reveal much of big tech is unsustainable as it is now and find itself doing the same suicidal manuevers twitter is doing in an vain intent to save itself. Maybe I was too worried about musk somehow making it worse, he bought a site dead on arrival.

I was hoping he'd make it worse. I was entirely okay with him making it better too because what he'd need to do is take the broom to the troons and groomers, and the site is still infested with them. Instead he's fucking it up for everyone, which is fine by me, because everyone who uses it is seething.

The worse he makes it, the sooner it will die or (much more likely) become as irrelevant as digg, which while it continues to lurch on in a zombie-like fashion, is never going to be relevant to anything again.

When I said worse, I meant making it a more efficient propaganda machine, or in other words improve the niggercattle plantation, I wasnt sure at the time if it was possible to make it a better plantation than it was under the indian regime
