  • X users are complaining about an influx of low-quality ads promoting crypto scams and AI “undressing” apps.
  • The decline in reputable advertisers on X has made the platform more reliant on less reputable ad buyers.
  • The exodus of advertisers, partially due to Elon Musk’s controversial behavior, has left X with a growing revenue gap.

$25 an hour is sadly not too good for any job in the US these days. $50k doesn’t go that far anymore.

Define “the US” because 25 an hour is living a life of luxury in much of the US that’s not a major city

$25/hr isn’t living a life of luxury anywhere. Not even in a town of 2,000 people.

I was slightly exaggerating sure, but 25 an hour outside of a city is a lot of money.
