The Elon Musk Twitter shitshow

[JupiterHawk]

Can’t scroll two pages of Twitter without seeing preview to this movie. Staring Qanon hero Jim Caviezel. The trailer i saw didn’t look that crazy. Think it will be about the harvesting of children’s blood he was pushing earlier?

I mean….to be fair if they called me up and asked if there was cheating I would say yes.

Trump attempted to manipulate the USPS, Georgia, and who knows what else. Plus all the cases of GOP voter fraud. I’m guessing like everything else the claims of stolen election were projection.

I think the only thing that saved America was just the massive turnout Biden had. Trump was trying to steal it, that’s for sure. I would say it was cheating that Trump even got as close as he did…

The blue check hierarchy kind of defeats the "town hall" element.

 

[Joes Place]

Looks like Elno shut off Twitter for anyone who doesn't have a login account.

Let's see how that pans out with "web traffic" and "advertisers"...

 

[Scruddy]

Impressive that Elon got the company to break even in such a short time while driving engagement up significantlyat the same time. Really shows how much dead weight was at twitter prior to the acquisition. Must be hard for the Musk haters to see their predictions of failure not pan out.

Break even?

They're down 10% just on ad revenues

All of their major ad groups have left them.

Now it's MyPillows, penis enlargement pills and MAGA political ads.

 

[Scruddy]

They're also down like 60% on payroll bc twitter 1.0 had a lot of useless employees. Musk has stated the companies Financials are no longer a major concern at this time.

I kinda wondered what was going on over there. I’d occasionally link over to the Tweeter from posts here or there to continue down the thread. Not anymore apparently, and no I’m not signing up for the privilege to do so.

And right when this gem was recirculating,

They're also down like 60% on payroll bc twitter 1.0 had a lot of useless employees.

...and they've been finding out, again and again, that those employees held "useful" functions, with every system f***up they've incurred.

Including their current one.

Putting a pitch count on how much people can use your app is a bold strategy

I pretty much am quitting Twitter today. Only reason I have not yet is the war. Just pathetic.

 

[LBoogie28]

Only @Scruddy left to verbally fellatiate Elon? Probably had a cybertruck preorder for 4 years.

 

[BrunoMars420]

Honestly I wish all these social media sites set limits on what you can view haha. But I heard this is due to some hacking and shit and will probably be fine once they figure that out

 

[Moral]

Elon doesn't get enough credit for inventing Twitter.

 

[St. Louis Hawk]

Can someone see if they paid their Google cloud bill …

I am hoping the Meta Threads will be a good alternative.

This is what Instagram’s upcoming Twitter competitor looks like

Meta says people want a communications platform that’s “sanely run.”

[BlIIlken2]

Lol I clicked tweet about the policy changes to view replies, it said “rate limit exceeded”

It is so ****ing unusable now

 

[DavidHawk324]

Meta threads sounds like it may be a replacement option. I do laugh that they have a commitment from the Dali Lama. Does anyone give a shit what that guy tweets?

Platformer reported that Twitter was scrambling to move services off Google Cloud before the contract ends on June 30, but cited sources who said that this was taking longer than expected and that it was uncertain what would happen with some of the services.​

​

For example, it's unclear whether Twitter would try to migrate Smyte to its own servers, sources told Platformer.​

​

Smyte, a company Twitter acquired in 2018 that provides tools to stop harassment, abuse, and spam, is hosted on Google Cloud Platform and is now set to be shut down at the end of the month, Platformer reported.​

​

Twitter and Google did not respond to Insider's request for comment, made outside of regular working hours.​

Ah....makes sense now.

Twitter panicked when they could not migrate all the Smyte data fast enough to their servers. They basically had to close ops down, entirely, to scramble to get it done by 6/30, and the "download bar" probably still reads "30% Complete".

And now that they quit paying Google, the "spinning wheel" is just turning, because Google is throttling them....

That photo is completely accurate ^^^^^

So....I'm in suspense. How is the sub doing?

Helluva way to waste $45B

 

[Huey Grey]

I still can't see Twitter posts without being a member. Way to shit the platform down your legs Musk.

I would hope that you never ever take whatever source you got this from seriously ever again, but I doubt it.

Musk and his mouthpieces are contenders for most full-of-shit people on the planet.

On the contrary it is seeking to address the unfettered spam and bot problem the service had since forever. It has gotten markedly better in my experience.

It was literally from Elon musk:

Oh and Disney, Apple, Amazon, State Farm, United Airlines, T-Mobile, Sony, McDonald’s and Microsoft. those kinds of schmucks. Little people.

Joe has anyone ever told you that you are very good at being completely wrong?
