    The site feels completely decadent

    The feeling of decay is constant there, with basic stuff not working like reading quotes

    Let’s not even start talking about the video player

    If you click in any treading topic, there are only spams

    Twitter is still popular but feels completely different from a few years ago, it definitely peaked in the mid 10s

    One thing I realized is that most celebrities don’t even use twitter anymore

    they saw what they've been doing to other celebrities on twitter in the last few years s***s now strictly for your marketing team to announce new music and s*** im sure there are still lots of celebrities on burners though

  • I thought all the libs overreacted but Twitter is so much worse now with all the blue mark npc spam

  • Bruh remember when you could just click quote tweets

    I feel like we give Twitter too much credit…

    It was the “digital town square” 8 years ago, but not anymore

  • Everyday I gotta see Elon dog whistle about “DEI”

    All critical of Israel and Western Imperialism.

  • Elon running his mouth about diversity and immigration 24/7. Dude sounds just like an establishment hack distracting you from real issues.

    For the record I don’t agree and I’m not doing s*** about this

  • X will soon start requiring a Premium subscription to watch some video content after a time limit, as the company shifts to become a video-first platform.

  • theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2023/12/twitter-tiktok-short-form-video/676923

    Plenty of people do still want platforms for sending off quick thoughts, and perhaps X or any other alternative will gain more users. But the decline of microblogging is part of a larger change in how we consume media. On TikTok and other platforms, short clips are served up by an at-times-magical-seeming algorithm that makes note of our every interest. Text posts don’t have the same appeal. “While platforms like X are likely to maintain a core niche of users, the overall trends show consumers are swapping out text-based social networking apps for photo and video-first platforms,” data.ai noted in its predictions report.

    Feel like alot of the old audience still being on twitter is whats currently keeping it afloat.

    Couldnt imagine being a new user registrating to the site being hit by just straight up racism

  • Fries

    Why are you happy about this lol, can't think of something that affects me less

    I was so off-base on this man, it's truly awe-inspiring how much worse the site is now

    Whatever the 'bot problem' Elon promised to fix was, I never saw anything that matched the description, but now the thing's an absolute bot-riddled nightmare where the least interesting people pay for their tweets to be forced to the top of the line, crazy

  • The p*** s*** is annoying but my TL has been fire recently

  • saint dot edumist

    if you had any critical thinking ability, you’d realize that giving different colors for different levels of verification (hinging on the accounts’ notability) directly negates the purpose of what Twitter Blue was even partially instated for (bringing power back to the people on Twitter/making everyone equal so celebs don’t take precedence over non-verified people etc)

    so tl;dr: it’s a dumb system and they’re coping—and so are you

    i was right the entire time btw

    now we just have trolls and p*** bots that are verified, what a brilliant gambit by Mr.Musk

    Yeah bro verifying paying customers to differentiate from low effort trolls definitely doesn't accomplish anything

    Not to mention all the fake old verified people that deserve to get purged and have to re-apply

    You sure have it all figured out

    so insanely braindead

    almost makes me emotional
