how does your entire post square with it being "noticeably better"? Everything you describe is worse than before.

- nicky0 3y agoWell it's subjective I guess. For me personally I'm finding Twitter more fun and engaging than I used to. It's less preachy somehow.
- shri_krishna 3y agoNoticeably better in terms of content I am seeing and that the accounts I used to follow earlier, which were banned in the erstwhile Twitter regime, have been reinstated. Plus Twitter is more fun and engaging now than it was before where I used to only see people cancelling/boycotting/fighting over trivial things. Community notes is working great too. I know instantly if something is fake or not and prevents me from sharing that Tweet with friends/family (if not for community notes I would have believed the Tweet to be true, unless I actually did my own research/investigation). Downsides I listed are more frustration with some decisions taken by Elon. Like increasing the price of the API. But I can see why he did that (especially considering news that OpenAI trained on Twitter data too). I just vented it out so if any Twitter employee is reading this, they come up with some way to also help indie developers (many of them shut shop after this debacle). Also, I really despise it when people want you to choose either black or white. Either you are in the club of hating Elon or glorifying him. I don't want to fall in either of the buckets. I want to express my own opinion on things that are not influenced by the mob. So yeah I can say both good and bad things about Twitter takeover. And that's exactly what I am doing.
