I miss the old Twitter when I saw the stupid X animation.

Twitter X is Elon Musk’s world. Pretty soon he’ll have so much control over his platform that he can practically cron kings and manipulate outcomes to fit his personal political agenda. And don’t even get me started on his whole stupid “X the everything app bullshit.

The only everything app that has succeeded so far is WeChat in China. But it’s apparently a surveillance app for the masses by the government. Seriously, why the hell would I want to link my social media account with my bank account and even my government ID? What’s the benefit in that?

I’d rather keep the digital me disconnected to the real me.

    At the moment it’s just reskinned twitter, eventually he wants to turn it into Facebook with chat, calls, payments and such I guess.

      Yeah if this is his plan it’s clear he hasn’t thought for a second about why 99% of the world would even want to replace their other apps with this mess, and that would been true even if he never gave anyone reason to hate him personally, which he’s done in spades.

      It’s pathetic how obvious it is that it will fail hard.
