Except for his account, I'd bet.

This is cause people blocked him isnt it or was it simply Biden got more attention then the poor musky boi

I am very glad I left Twitter at the beginning of Musk's rein. This is just dangerous.

I have blocked only one person on Twitter: him.

Not surprising, knowing how childish this guy is. I mean he's literally promoting his own tweets in the "For You" tab to people who haven't blocked him, despite these people not even following or interacting with his tweets in any kind of way...

Elon trying not to make the worst decisions possible challenge (Impossible)

...what the fuck???

First thing I did after he bought Twitter is block him. Did I hurt his feelings?

(Not that I follow what's going on with Twitter anymore since I found Mastodon.)

Are you kidding? Being able to block people who are harraing you is the ONLY thing that keeps social media civil. What the actual fuck.

I'd wager this is in response to the campaign going around to block every blue checkmark. Elon can't let his crowd of sycophants feel like they're being ignored.

he's pissed because people started installing browser extensions like Block The Blue

That sounds like the most stupid shit ever. I'm usually not the person that blocks a lot. I believe in 5 years of twitter i maybe blocked 3 accounts plus a couple of spam bots. But still...like...why would you think that this is a good idea?

You cannot make this f-ing UP! Twitter is indeed a dumpster fire.

This can't be serious...

Serious question: is musk actively trying to run twitter into the ground for some kind of financial benefit, or is he just an arrogant asinine asshole who has no idea what he's doing?

Musk and his backers (various authoritarian regimes) probably intended only to amplify the voices of the far right and other loonies, not to kill the platform itself. But that was always going to be difficult to thread that needle, made impossible by Musk's absolute lack of self awareness or self control. The fact that not only Musk is going to lose a lot of money when Twitter dies fills me with joy.

I just don't understand some of these decisions...

I wonder where the fandoms and the artist communities are going to go now that they just opened the floodgates for the massive amount of harassment those communities tend to deal with.

I presume some are going to return to Tumblr, but hopefully they make the switch to Mastodon.

I can’t wait for other social media platforms to do the same thing. Social media companies are so stagnant they just copy what other companies do without thinking if it’s a good idea or not.

Bro it's like he WANTS us to only see t shirt ads
