Can you describe how it's been absolutely ruined?
No way to verify accounts, weird paywalling, pay for views, losing tons of money, mostly just that
And like Reddit, they shut down the 3rd party apps that made it more pleasant to use, especially on mobile. I didn’t realize how shitty native Twitter is until I lost Tweetbot.
It was always losing tons of money. Nothing changed there.
The amount of money it's losing now is a LOT more. Advertising is down 70%, so someone definitely noticed a difference. Also they are now $13 billion in debt, owing a billion a year just on interest.
Sorting Elon stans to the top of reply chains is a negative change. Hate speech is now only regulated for Liberals. Also, they ruined the entire concept of verification.
