I actually don’t hate the idea but it’s the rigid sticking to it that’s the dumb part. The rate limiting clusterfuck was such a perfect opportunity to go “OK everyone here’s a hundred invites valid for the next 48 hours go wild”. Still feels like a club since you have to get an invite and creates an impetus on users to get these invites sent out ASAP. I actually figured that this was the strategy, but now that they let that golden moment pass them by I now realise that nobody there has any idea what the fuck they’re doing. Guess Jack just wants it to be a haven for all the worst blue checkmark behaviour of Twitter, in which case I commend him for creating a containment website.
