I think John Gruber[0] already said all that needs to be said about this latest Elon Musk fantasy:
'who looks at Twitter of all things and says “I’d like to see this expand in scope such that a lot more, if not all, of my digital life can be here”?'

- null_object 4y ago> Which of these two gentlemen understands the zeitgeist better? I sort of understand the downvote for citing Gruber (I'm no fan of his Apple adoration, either - although I don't see it's relevance in this context). But Twitter?? I have Twitter redirect automatically to Nitter in all my browsers, but even ignoring the technical shortcomings of the platform, it's mostly such a sewer of garbage these days, I honestly think Gruber was right in this case.
- A4ET8a8uTh0 4y agoI think I understand the intent and indeed the article links Bloomberg article suggesting the same. Musk envisions it as US WeChat. I hate it, but I hate it the same way I hate Paypal. Idea though is not far fetched and is way more sustainable than effectively running a bot farm mixed with corporate PR and customer service, but there I go being a luddite.
