Is Musk on drugs or something? Genuinely seems to be losing his mind

"But those clarifications were ignored by the media and essentially I handed a loaded gun to those who hate me and arguably to those who are antisemitic. And for that I'm quite sorry, that was not my intention."

You hear that? He's sorry.

Sorry that he's facing consequences for his actions.

He’s probably not all that worried about Xwitter. He’s got billions to spare. Be like wrecking your Ferrari, blaming the wet road when you were just going too fast, and still having 4 more in the garage.

He’s just worried about saving face and how the boards of his companies are going to view his behavior.

Imagine watching Kanye West destroy his public image and then in the same year thinking "Nothing bad will happen if I make antisemitic comments on the media platform I own."

So Mastodon looks to be the big after Twitter. When is the funeral for Twitter?

[–] Syntha@sh.itjust.works 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Does it? Looks to me like people are willing to use any service but mastodon as a Twitter replacement.

Unfortunately I think Threads is going to be the big winner here... People love the brands; Meta attracts more than Mastodon...
