RIP Twitter

If I were being fair, I would pay him 5$ a month for premium, and no ad tracking. That is NOT going to happen tho. He needs to make a profit. He bought it, he OWNS it.

In my estimation, being that most information bubbles out of twitter, 5$ a month with NO AD TRACKING analytics is the estimation. I can get on board with that. He wants a profit tho, thus the 8$ and ad tracking.

He's settled on 8$ a month for limited ads, and priority search or, free twit with ads, and with limited search.

I'm not understanding this limited search thing. Does it mean limited presence in search or limited use of search? Do I already have limited search or will I when I don't pay for a blue check?

I had no idea that blue checks paid for anything.

rn, all the relevant and known reporters are behind twits paywall. These are people in court rooms and on boards and such. Nightly news people. Journalists. When enough legit people push it, it starts to get known. It starts to trend. Twitter is a MASSIVE database of human activity, that is front by an excellent search. It used to be more "free" and better, but it didn't last, and people complained. It still has an amazing search algorithm that is well known tho. When you search twit for free, you will run into that paywall, and have to work the hell out of the algorithm, but eventually it feeds you truths from the boots on the ground.

My initial reading of that (I didn't look it up or anything) is that it's referring to other people seeing your tweets when they search. Paid users are more visible. You pay for the reverse of "shadowbanning".

Almost all media promotes it's self. That does NOT mean it is false or wrong. It means they are promoting themselves. You really don't have to take that harshly until they start modifying and codifying your human rights. Then, everything goes illegitimate in the US. It's off the table.

Given that he has a long track record of telling left wing grifters to f*** off, it is a bit surprising to me.

He's been confusing me about what he thinks free speech means for months:

“By ‘free speech,’ I simply mean that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.”

“If [Twitter users] say something that is illegal or otherwise just destructive to the world, then there should be perhaps a timeout, a temporary suspension, or that particular tweet should be made invisible or have very limited traction. I think if there are tweets that are wrong and bad, those should be either deleted or made invisible, and a suspension, a temporary suspension is appropriate but not a permanent ban.”
