Anyone else find it ironic that journalists go to twitter to complain about twitter?[/quote]

It's a medium of communication, so no, not really.[/quote]
+1 It’s not their fault that Elon purposely ran it into the ground. That’s a platform so many places used as news disseminators and I literally mean alerts and such like “are the fireworks going on despite the rain” earlier this summer. Twitter is now busted and unusable. [/quote]

Yet people still use it. Elon has proven that he can curate material however he likes and change on a whim and journalists will still draw traffic to his app [/quote]

Journalists and some policy folk definitely feel they still need to be there, in case there’s newsworthy stuff there. The rest of us, not so much.

I’m trying to love Thread, and slowly friends are moving over there, but I’m not thrilled with the whole metaverse and at the moment I’m just getting a lot of cute pet content. [/quote]

I don't think Threads will catch on but it does leave a whole for another competitor to come in.

Role back the name to twitter because x is never catch on and let people browse tweets without logging in. People need to see content in order to want to react. [/quote]
The times that Instagram throws Threads posts on my timeline always feels as if they’re written by AI. They’re just kind of meaningless words strung together.

It sucks that Elon bought Twitter to destroy it. When the media was doing a crap job of covering the meaning of Donald Trump and his vile party, a lot of journalists on Twitter had a lot of information. I don’t think it’s coincidental that Twitter is effectively dead.

Someone posted on 10/27 that Twitter usage was down 30%; I wonder how much further it’s plunged. [/quote]
