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

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Twitter is broken for a lot of people right now, it turns out that Elon in his infinite wisdom is limiting most of the userbase to only being able to view 600 Tweets a day

Which is probably about 10 minutes of scrolling through the "For You" tab.
The verified accounts are allowed 6000 Tweets so it just seems like he's intent on fucking with the non paying portion of the users until they give him money.

600 may sound like a lot but that number is reached surprisingly fast, especially if this includes promoted tweets which it probably does.

Oh man, imagine if you are a frog citizen right now and would like to look up twitter to find out about the riots and where to stay the fuck away from...sorry, 10 dollars to Musk to check.
 
Hey, it's a free detox program by Elon himself. What's not to like?
People who would otherwise blow hours on reading this shitpile website will now spend it on developing alternatives.
See, Yoel Roth and Vijaya Gadde are not out of business yet. Plenty of new twitter clones they'll be able to censor.

There's a very paranoid, tinfoil chapeau wearing part of me that think this is being done specifially because Musk is under orders from (((someone))) to limit people's access to information.
Nah he's just a fucking retard who doesn't know what he's doing. Became highly successful in one specialised area to the point of being a billionaire and thinks that automatically makes him qualified for anything else he touches.

Part of me thinks he's unhappy with the number of people who don't want to verify and pay 10 dollars, so he's doing the live video game service thing of "pay to use it normally".

I wouldn't be surprised if there was an 'action plan' developed following the apotheosis of Saint Floyd in case another major riot breaks out. Shutting off or limiting internet access is a common tool used by authoritarian countries when their subjects are trying to revolt. Effectively turning off twitter for most users is _very_ convenient for France at the moment, and it also will cause a lot of internet junkies to subscribe to twitter.
 
Twitter's going to shit again. Musk is only allowing accounts the ability to view a couple hundred posts a day. It was pretty bad before with the french censoring and shadow banning on there but this is a whole new level.

He say's its temporary... right.

"Censorship is bad mmkay! just let me buy out this platform to end that."
Months later
"Censorship is good mmkay, you don't pay, you don't see!"
Musk managed to make Reddit a viable platform.
 
If you are looking at anywhere near 300, 600, 6000, 400, 800, or 8000 tweets a day you are either a bot or a niggerfaggot who deserves whatever happens to you lol
I think replies are counted in this, because I'm throttled on a not-old account and I definitely haven't looked at 300 tweets today. Maaaaaybe 50 actual top-level tweets max.

Also, Musk is fucking over the people who he's trying to lure to start video streaming programs with this gambit. It's a very weird decision. People like Matt Walsh who have moved their whole shows to twitter are going to be very upset at Musk for this.

Replies are counted in it, including the ones that load on the screen that you don’t see without scrolling, or clicking on one. A users own tweets that they’ve posted on their profile are counted.

Quote subtweets also count as posts.

Even better, your own tweets are counted. So if you tweeted at Musk calling him a faggot, that's part of the count. Seen people say that once they hit the limit they can't even see their own tweets.
 
Twitter was quite a useful tool for info gathering in terms of lolcows, for me at least. Pretty useless if you can't archive the tweets to authenticate their authenticity though.

CNN approached Twitter for comment in regards to the Read Limits and TwitterDown thing

Disrespecting Legacy media is based at least, even if the entire website he bought is burning down around him.
