Lol so true. Its not just Twitter though, most of the companies do the same thing. However its on us to not make noise and boycott the shit outta these companies.
Why don’t people just stop caring about whatever the fuck is going on at Twitter/X? I consider it in the same realm as truthsocial or OANN comment sections. Sure, musky had enough money to buy a platform, but that platform is elevated by it’s users. If people just stopped doing that, it would be irrelevant. Literally nothing important has happened on twitter, ever. We don’t need it. Just discard it and let it wither in the dark.

Because whatever the fuck is going on at Twitter impacts the world. Like it or not, Twitter still contains and controls an enormous amount of public discourse.
To add to this, every politician, journalist, and influencer is on Twitter, so even if a majority of people don’t use it or post on it, the platform is a hub for ideas and real-time news.
In the EU, App stores already have a legal responsibility to remove apps that promote hate speech. While both Google and Apple are sitting on the sidelines while the EU is going through the legal motions to tear Musk a new one, I wouldn’t be surprised if they kick X out just before someone forces them too, just to pretend they actually care.
They already have no problem pulling other apps for shit that Xitter is known to pull. Even when said other apps have a similar lack of control (or even less) over said content.
I’m waiting for Apple and Google to pull the X client from their app stores.
Then the fun really begins.
Not going to happen as all these companies work together. these companies are notorious to trick regulars into thinking they are helping the society.
SocialMediaPlatform™ does something horrible
Make a huge deal about pulling ads from SocialMediaPlatform™ to get consumers on your side
Quietly return ads to SocialMediaPlatform™ after PR team determines everyone has forgotten
SocialMediaPlatform™ does something even worse
GOTO 2

Panem et circem.
Meet the circem.
They keep the panem.
something would have to be seriously wrong for that to happen

Just in time for the EU to also force third party app stores through, and X attempting to make one sounds plausible even if they get nowhere with it.

And the users will migrate into the welcoming arms of the 粪 client instead.
