He said in that second thread that he is not actually leaving Twitter.
- hprotagonist 4y agowell, guess again!
- dekhn 4y agoNo, Twitter left him.
- croon 4y agoWell, seems that choice was taken out of his hands by an insecure billionaire.
- Hamuko 4y agoTo be fair, that's most likely just a temporary ban.
- croon 4y agoThat's not fair.
- Analemma_ 4y agoBoy the bar for the “to be fair” crowd sure has slipped. To be fair, pg was only temporarily banned for acknowledging the existence of competing social networks!
- Hamuko 4y agoWell, he most likely will still get an opportunity to use Twitter if he so chooses. No one said anything about it being a good version of Twitter.
- eternalban 4y agoYeah, it's like those WW2 movies in Japanese POW camps in the jungle. One of the allied officers yanks their chain, they send him to cooler, and the soldiers cheer the officer. Except PG made kissy noises with the POW guards and said to the soldiers "I still think they are very civilized" as he went on to the cooler. That bit wasn't in the original script.
- ColinWright 4y agoI'm explicitly quoting the thread title, not the thread content, which is too extensive to do justice to in a line or two. Reading much of the threads there and elsewhere, and skimming most of the rest, I believe his intent was to create a bolt-hole, but had hopes that Twitter would recover.
- jacquesm 4y agoNot to put too fine a point on it, but it appears that he was after all.
