Days after requiring users to log in to view tweets on the web, Twitter has silently removed these restrictions.
Sticking with kbin.👍
Watching Musk continue to fuck Twitter into the ground is like watching a really bad skier go down a black diamond trail on their face.
Looks like this might apply only to individual tweets. If you want to view someone’s main page, you still have to sign in.
Probably I won’t be sharing tweets anytime soon. Add in the fact that there’s no official announcement, they might reverse this in 15 minutes when Musk’s next tantrum starts. So why bother.
Now that you pointed it out, I have no clue how people/businesses who rely on twitter can continue to do so with the utter uncertainty the platform runs on daily.
I know they’ve been leaving in droves, but it has been insane how it has been run these past few months.
Musk: incompetent and incapable of recognizing his incompetence, because the media had been sucking his dick for so long.
I’ve been slowly reading Pete Walker’s book Complex PTSD, and he has some interesting ideas about personality disorders and developmental trauma, so I don’t want to start waving around the word “narcissism” as if Elon’s behaviour can’t be caused by ongoing environmental pressures, but there are significant indicators from employees, and even his first wife, that he’s been like this for a long time.
He’s just never been as exposed as he is right now, since his employees have bent over backwards to keep him away from making product decisions.
Elon’s been sucking his own dick since before any of us ever heard of him. Really, the media’s just been sitting around watching him do it.
incompetent and incapable
He was truly good at getting venture capital and at getting the ultra rich to hand him over cash. He was (and may still be) good at hiring skilled sycophants.
He’s a horrible manager and an awful decision maker.
His true skill was applying unreal amounts of pressure to very skilled people to pull off momentous things and being very lucky that they didn’t explode in his face.
May have something to do with tweets geting deindexed by Google
