All the more reason Twitter should support open protocols! They might have a hard time competing if they work against the industry rather than with it. Especially if Elon is dumb enough to keep sticking his nose in politics.

Let's not be naive. Some people are on Twitter, but other people only have a flip phone or laptop, or nothing at all. There are better ways to prevent people from falling through the cracks then telling them to just align with the most popular platform. Especially since the keys to the kingdom just got ritually passed-down from Dumb to Dumber.
Twitter will keep it's bots and probably it's influencers too, but this level of unreliability is just a collision course with obsolescence. Governments, public orgs and nonprofits will all think twice before setting up a Twitter now.
