The problem of Twitters ownership and moderation remains
- jacooper 4y agoAs if Hive is going to be any better?
- MBCook 4y agoIt may be. I don’t know their policies. But whatever you thought of the old Twitter policy, that obviously changed. And they could’ve made that change without a new owner if they had chosen to. He who owns the server sets the rules.

- naravara 4y agoGot a price on Andreessen being an investor in Hive? I just checked in Crunchbase and it looks like they’ve raised $3M but no specifics. And all I’m able to find is that it’s from an unnamed angel investor. $3M seems small potatoes for Andreessen unless he’s trying to do a Tab vs Diet Coke thing and corner all the options.
- zimpenfish 4y agoNo, he says he's an investor in Post.News - "Post Dot News also seems absolutely vile. First of all, Marc Andreessen is an investor [...]"
- pmarreck 4y agoWhat's the "problem"?
- pelorat 4y agoThat 75% of Twitters userbase, per their own admission, is not from the USA, and fall under laws that requires Twitter to do better at moderating their platform. https://www.wsj.com/articles/eu-official-warns-elon-musk-changes-needed-at-twitter-11669833755 https://www.wsj.com/articles/eu-official-warns-elon-musk-cha... I mean, would be quite sad for Elon if those non-US nations pulled Twitter from their markets.
- dcow 4y agoI thought that had been solved recently, no?
