This is like my dream come true. I always thought Twitter was stupid AF and couldn’t stand anyone who thought spending time on it was worthwhile either as a voice or just someone who wasted time on it. Seeing Elon buy it and ruin it in a single week is just amazing and I can’t help relish in its demise. Yeah I recognize all the harm he’s done to the hard working staff he just fucked over royally, and I truly feel for them, but this is for the better of society in general. IMO.

- I honestly have no idea what you’re referring to.monospaced
- I think that's for the best, Elon fancies himself as a hilarious trickster, but was beaten by memes.PhanLo
- This post makes no sense, but okay.
Twitter is working as expected since 2008 when I joined...grafician - Huh. I guess. But wouldn’t you say it was just his upheaval of the company and poor decisions that ruined it?monospaced
- I'm telling you twitter is working as expected and is not ruined LOL
It's even more exciting since a few weeks agografician - Yet you post again without having a clue about the subject at hand...grafician
- I think we are talking about different things, and I disagree it’s working well as a platform right now.monospaced
- Calling me clueless is not only false, it makes you look like a needlessly condescending know it all little shit, which of course you are. Congrats.monospaced
- If you can’t make sense of my post it’s because either you refuse to understand, or you just want to be a cunt. You’re not that stupid or dense.monospaced
- To be fair, it was pretty stupidFax_Benson

Been on twitter since around 2008. I've seen it all.
Twitter is fine. Just crossing into centrist territory from extreme leftist views, with a topping of bots and far right.
Media freaking out 'cuz people have free speech again and can ruin global corporations' stock with a simple tweet...
Elon got twitter on the cheap for the value it represents on the internet of today.
Remember Trump could've started WW3 with a tweet just a few years ago...

- But the tweet is after the price drop. Or is the person screen grabbing the chart in a different time zone?shapesalad
- probablygrafician
- You don't need insulin unless type 1. If type 2, you are just fat and need to diet.shapesalad
- Here is something like $20-30, apparently in the US it's 10x that at least, with the US first place on skipping drugs 'cuz ppl can't afford themgrafician

Elon stopped this feature for now, too dangerous :))))grafician - Let’s not conflate the price of Insulin in the US with Musk’s actions artificially manipulating the Stockmarket. Has real world implications.BusterBoy
- His recklessness with the platform directly lead to this. He is not being a responsible personmonospaced
- Wrecking billions in stock prices with a single tweet? Nope, working as intented

I loved twitter.
Took me nearly a decade to figure out how to use it in a way that wasn’t shit terrible like most other social media. I stopped tweeting entirely. Stopped replying. No input. Only followed people I’m interested in professionally. If they start to regularly tweet about non-professional things, unfollow.
I would get exposed to interesting perspectives and new or old ideas about design.
Bummer to see it go, but there are other forums and either Elon will cool out or something will pop up to replace it.
