“This will teach people to stop holding me accountable for what I support!”
I bet the change is due to the fact that despite his bot armies he’s getting ratioed lately.
Idk why people wouldn’t just make anonymous accounts. Then you can say whatever
With every Elon article about him making changes to Twitter, I’m shocked there are any users left.
Real Empty Internet Theory hours, given how much of that site is flooded with bots.
Like, even when there is an active community, its punctuated with so many ads and spam account posts that real interactions are the exception rather than the rule.
At this point, if you’re still posting on Twitter then you’re suspect. That site’s subtag might as well be “PUSSY IN BIO”, we all know why you’re there.
So what’s the point of liking anymore? Like at some point it’s gonna be a single player platform requiring online data gathering
Probably just for the algorithm, but then again I don’t know much about how Twitter actually works.
I never cared for the idea of telling the world when I’m going to take a shit or some other completely pointless thing nor do I care to see when Major Company takes a shit either.
I am assuming that likes will be visible on a tweet but you can’t look through a specific user’s likes unless they allow it? Seems like a decent change tbh
Back in the day there were only re-tweets and bookmarks. Then Facebook likes became popular and Twitter changed bookmarks which could be private or public into fully public likes. So annoying. Likes should have never existed on Twitter.
So, it’ll be harder to tell when someone is buying likes from bots? Because that sounds like what muskrat intends to do in order to boost his shit ego
I assume this is so we can all publicly like porn
Wonder when he will announce X becoming a bank
I have to give credit where it’s due, I actually like this change. Likes used to be private, and then they became public and subject to the toxic performativity of social media
Yeah, I don’t know what they were thinking when Twitter decided to make likes public by default and even go so far as to show your likes on your followers’ feeds. Seemed creepy and parasocial and is one of the factors that drove me away from Twitter, so this is a good change.
