what do we think about this? https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1675187969420828672
I think it might help me quit looking at Twitter too much.
I think it's the dumbest thing any CEO has done in the history of capitalism. I'm now convinced he's actively working to destroy Twitter.
Shakes head sideways and wonders how long before Elon reverses course and opens access for all.
If twitter doesn’t load when I open it, I am trained to open it less. Feels like ceding the playing field to new habits.
Will probably encourage people to create way more bots than before ? Good way to grow metrics & revenue lmao
As much as I would like it to not be (and for Farcaster to benefit), will likely be a temporary blip. Most of the time he does something people get mad about it has a Streisand Effect.
I love the tacit admission that paid accounts are somehow still capable of sybil attacking, and all accounts are congestibles that a credibly neutral market could take advantage of w/ adequate incentive.
Crazy that people have to find Reddit and Twitter alternatives in the same 48 hours due to the terrible decisions of out of touch CEOs.
It's like a shitcoin or nft founder cutting future market fit potential
I think its interesting Bezos isn't bailing this out. Feels like AWS bills are late, and he didn't fall for Elmos "charm".
