I never got what did Elon change on the site that it’s worse now (when it comes to content). Yet I can now lurk without any additional steps like login or nitter. Most people from my country didn’t migrate and the most popular worldwide neither did. Unbanned people, like Trump, didn’t return. What did change?

Changing the meaning of the blue checkmark from “this person is who they say they are so you can trust what they say” to “this person is dumb enough to pay for a check.”
Because the right-wing bigots complained about other users avoiding and blocking them, Musk now forces the blue-checks to be more visible. He’s also looking into ways to remove blocking altogether.
His insistence on showing Matt Walsh’s propaganda film forced the head of content safety and moderation to quit after she removed the video and he reinstated it.
And that doesn’t count the things that don’t affect the public, like using the Trump method of not paying their bills such as their use of AWS or office leases.

There’s also the outrageous API fees that reddit is copying.
Tbh i only follow latex people so my timeline is only photography. Don’t follow any other topics on Twitter otherwise.
Not often. Usually the ones that interest me are an image or an announcement, both of which can usually be found elsewhere.
