X might be the worst platform on the internet.

[–] 5parky@lemmy.world 18 points 5 hours ago

With reddit eating X's ass on the highway to insignificance.

X gonna give it to ya (it being a temporary suspension)

[–] Aeao@lemmy.world 7 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

That's good but I'm concerned since I'm currently unable to pick it up on my own. Is this standing offer that I can take advantage of at a later date?

[–] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Fuck waitin' for you t'get it on y'own X gon' delivery it to ya!

It being an authoritarian regime.

Good thing he left Bluesky to go back to X, the free speech app.

The guy had the option to sell like $1 billion of his ownership stake in Twitter when Musk bought it, but instead left it in. He also supported the Musk takeover. Guy is a fool.

[–] Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Wait he owns that many shares and he still got banned?

[–] vga@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

If that figure of $1 billion is correct, that's just 1/44 ownership. Hardly a portion that allows one to control anything operative.

Despite everything, he’s a tech bro first.

[–] betternotbigger@lemmy.world 13 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

No one remembers the brief stint to leap frog Web3 with Web5? I'm so tired of these tech bros.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 2 points 2 hours ago

Ah, the old Winamp gambit.

Co-founder and former CEO of Twitter. So, kind of like: the chiX have come home to twit

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 26 points 8 hours ago

You may need to perform additional tasks to resume using X

The founder?

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 26 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Here is the archived link. If they're famous, archive it please. Rule 6

[–] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 6 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (2 children)

Nah, I don't give a fuck about famous people, and you shouldn't either.

They're simply just regular humans who happen to make more money than you, and that's not enough value for me to pay attention.

Archiving this shit is a waste of drive space.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 63 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It's not because I care about what they say, it's so that we don't have misquotes and people fighting over that shit. Also, no one wants to go to x directly to see the link. We're saving the users of this community and not giving them any traffic.

[–] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 16 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Valid reasoning.

[–] count_dongulus@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

They don't make the money, they take the money.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 21 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

What did he say that got him banned, does anyone know?

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 17 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Probably didn't personally thank Trum and Musk today or something.

[–] suite403@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

I bet he claimed to have founded Twitter. Can't be spreading propaganda on X after all.
