Yes, and that is clearly the reason he purchased the platform.

Possible translation: “Let the wealthiest among us consolidate even more wealth while we wreck shit for the rest of you. We’d like to have complete control over you rubes while shit gets worse.”

ETA: This is exactly the same rhetoric that oil and gas companies (and the politicians who’ve effectively been bought out by them) have used to justify further expansion well after knowing the danger that this poses.

People need to get the fuck off twitter.

Sooo high urgency with zero consequence for missing targets?

So ban them too

Yeah I mean I’m not surprised that this business is failing. It always just seemed like a worse and more expensive version of something that was always inherently pretty boring.

OK… I’m legit just starting to judge people for still using that platform.

Lol

I mean, that’s fine, but as a Linux user I’ve fucked around a lot and spent a lot of time fixing mistakes that I did not need to make.

I think I’m a pretty average Linux user. Who needs something that “just works” when you can break it by trying to add something you don’t need?

Property rights being valued above human rights is kind of a mainstay of capitalism.

Xitter being pronounced “shitter” is pretty apt tho

Yes, trans folks tend to be pretty upfront for the reasons you mentioned.

This is just some hateful, bullshit, trans panic nonsense. Some people can’t even handle the idea that they might as a matter of course be attracted to a trans person given the opportunity.

This tech will inevitably also exclude some slightly less normative appearing cis folks too, but they don’t care because they just hate trans people.

There are plenty of vendors that ship with Linux preinstalled. Even Dell does this with select models.

And just for the record, the tone of this is meant to be encouraging. I love hearing that people are open to other options.

They do, but not as an exclusive. This year Spotify signed a deal with him worth 250M.

But also yeah, I can appreciate that sentiment.

I switched to TIDAL, for this, for the disgustingly low amount of revenue passed along to artists by Spotify (the entire value of their business), and for the fact that they continue to partner with Rogan after all the disinformation he peddles.

Not a huge proponent of streaming services in general, but some are objectively better than others. Spotify is atrocious. Tidal is a lot better.

There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution that works
