    I used to use Twitter to follow celebs when they dropped performance dates. Now I don’t follow anyone anymore.

      Songkick is an app I use to help me track that. You can either put in a city and it’ll tell you who is coming and when. Or you can tell it what artists to track and it will tell you the tour dates, if any. It also tracks comedians.

    It’s a weird decision to further monetize access to a platform that’s hemorrhaging users and engagement.

      You don’t get it. Because there’s less and less they need to squeeze them even further!

      Maybe it’s a way to launder dirty money or take bribes, the way solid booking a floor at the Trump Tower for a few months is a way to launder money.

        Yup. It was bought as a tool to disrupt the next election. In that respect, it’s a hell of a good buy.

        He also likes it so literal children can publicly adore him. Also grooming.

    Gotta launder that Russian money somehow. Now they can pay him more without having to make as many accounts.

    Can’t see how many one is surprised, that a capitalist company Reddit did this api fee, now x is doing it. Capitalist see, capitalist do.

      With all the bs going on with twitter and reddit at this point for the least two years I don’t know anymore who did what first. It seemed like reddit was doing this around last year and Twitter seems to be following suit now.
