There's so much missing in this article. * No more public access. Twitter used to be a place to share and get info out, but now a lot of people won't be able to browse & enjoy a link you send them. * Absurd rate limits. People can't seem to stay on Twitter like they used to, because rate limits kick in very fast. * Many interesting accounts & bots shut down after API limits started being applied. Doing something interesting in Twitter used to be free. Now it's many thousands of dollars. * One of the worst things, the signal to noise ratio has gone to hell. Blue-checks are paid for, and get higher ranked. People happy to pay for & advertise bluechecks tend to be Musk fans, with strong anarcho-capitalist/libertarian views and/or edgelordy. Good/upvoted content is buried beneath sludge. The problem got so bad that Twitter started giving people bluechecks whether they wanted it or not and forced it on, removed the ability to hide/disable, just to make bluechecks not look so consistently terrible. * The hate speech happening is burning bridges. People keep acting like, oh, nazi shit showing up next to an ad is a rare mistake, but advertisers don't want to be two posts away from nazi shit, they don't want to be near it at all. Rather than sympathize with the ad buyers, Musk shit talks and threatens them & goes off about "censorship". * Twitter ("X") isn't getting any better and all the excitement being drummed up isn't for Twitter getting better; X's vision is to become something else, a video service, a banking service. Whether that's what core users want or are interested in or not seems dubious. There's no signs an infection point comes where Twitter can go back to being good, to being open & democratic & the place; everything seems on track to just be pointlessly recast & the past blown up.
