How about the other two? Facts are facts. It doesn't matter who is left or right leaning.
If a SINGLE account gets suspended, then free speech is not absolute. There are no exceptions. One example: Jack Sweeny isn't allowed to say what he wants on Twitter. He was the first to go, personally because of Musk, because he hurt his snowflake feelings. Waah.
Hypocrisy is the ultimate sin.
quite the contrary - Threads is taking off...
^^ Very original thoughts. Not following a crowd. So unique.
It's probably for a good reason why he got suspended. Source from reuters.com. "...saying his son had been mistakenly followed by a "crazy stalker". By the way, Reuters is Centered, and the majority of communities agreed. Here is the source.
The other two are also left-leaning. Keep in mind that I don't always rely on Wikipedia. It's also the left-leaning too. Here is a good example:
"Wikipedia changed the definition of recession to favor the Biden regime and then locked the page” tweeted right-leaning social media personality Mike Cernovich.
Not really. Threads grew rapidly in the days after its launch, but usage has declined and leveled off since.
Absolutist: a person who holds absolute principles in political, philosophical, or theological matters.
Musk is a hypocrite. I don't care what his "reasons" are.
Oh well, Twitter sucked before Elon Musk. It sucks now and it will suck in the future.
I don't know a single person that uses threads, or Twitter/X.
What's the point of social media if your friends aren't there?
Threads will be fine - it's its a "partner" to instagram (and Facebook)... its not meant to replace anything on the Meta side... they all work as a team. its set up to go when the inevitable happens... Twitter (X) Finally dies... and that will absolutely happen and likely sooner than later.
MR is the extent of my social media experience. It’s all I need. 😉
Musk bought 9% of Twitter in spring of 2022, but that was before the acquisition deal. As of the time he renamed Twitter so that it's technically no longer called Twitter (but will always be known as Twitter), he owned about 79% of Twitter.
Can you tell me what it is that makes you think he has balls?
Personally my issue with twitter no is not free speech absolutism, it's the excess amount of chaff that appears any time I actually want to find something. It's like trying to fix a leaky toilet and every time I try a bowl fool of rancid poop leaks all over the floor. Although I was never much of a Twitter user (more of an occasional lurker), I'm still trying to figure out what the next big thing is . Threads? Blusky? Mastadon? I'm very much in the "F** Twitter" camp, but haven't found a replacement.
Restricting tags to one per message may make sense to avoid silly long lists of tags, but it brings back classification in a single dimension.
People use Threads on Macs and other Apple devices, Threads is currently listed as #2 among “Top Free Apps” in Apple's App Store (and #1 in the "Social Networking" category), Apple has a presence on Threads, etc.
Let me fix that for you... "Sorry listing events that make my god look bad does not fit my view so I reject it.".
Hum.... Has iOS app... Apple has accounts on it.... Sounds Apple related.
Ok, then do it. Why do you have to tell everybody in the room?
