But I need that to block the 15 bots that follow me each day
People need to get the fuck off twitter.
Meanwhile, everybody will continue to refuse to leave the platform, further showing Elon that there is no price too high for people.
Sacre bleu! It’s almost like the free speech warrior does not know that the other aspect of free speech besides speaking freely is being able to choose whom to listen to! Does he think free speech means being forced to hear to specific people speak?
Surprised. Pikachu. Face.
Why the fuck does elon want to remove the block button on twitter like WHY???
So he can tell women how he will give them babies or horses.
Otherwise how the bullies can continue to belittle the victim behind their backs?
Switching to throwaway accounts is boring
Remember to contact your political representative and express your concerns on any public organization account having an account on twitter. Also contact any journali of a media you use to read/watch and express the same concern.
Once politics and journalists get out of twitter is game over.
At this point if you’re still on Shitter you kinda deserve whatever you get
The ones who are most vulnerable to this change are the ones who especially should’ve left this platform already. I’m sorry, but they’re not being forced to use it, and everyone should leave it. I don’t have much sympathy or care about wanting to make an alt-right social media platform safer, I want it to crash and burn.
“BuT eVeRyOnE iS oN tWitTeR”
And will continue to be so long as everyone keeps showing Elon there is NOTHING he can do, say, or allow that will get people to leave.
As much as I despise Musk and Twitter and hope that both die a painful death, what is actually proposed here is honestly a change for the better: It’s not about preventing people from blocking users, it’s about blocked users being able to see public posts, which they could also see by just logging out. This is being honest about what a block does and avoids giving people a wrong sense of privacy that they simply don’t have on the platform. From what I’ve heard there is a possibility to post for followers-only which in combination with requiring approval to follow and that isn’t going away here either…
You can always count on this twat to do the dumbest, shittiest thing he can.
I feel Musk is an experiment testing what would happen if you gave an Internet troll of middling intelligence billions of dollars.
lol, what?
The delete account button is still there.
I’d say “for now”, but at least we’ve got the EU protecting us from that possibility.
I mean, Twitter’s blocking policy goes way too far… but axing them completely? I dunno about that one chief.
I swear sometime he really seems like he is personally trying to kill twitter/x/xitter whatever it’s called.
Reminder: if you still have an account with that fucko’s service-
You support everthing he does.
I’ve kept my account because it’s a sought after username. Deleting it would allow some grifter to take it over. It also predates both Elmo’s and the original Twitter accounts.
I’ve not posted anything under it since the third party apps were blocked.
Reminder: if you purchase gas from BP, you support anything they’ve ever done.
Reminder: if you purchase a smart phone, you support child labor.
I don’t believe I’m entertaining this ridiculous comparison, but….
We NEED gasoline. We NEED telecommunications. You don’t NEED to tweet dumb shit about your breakfast or keep up with sports scores.
You’re here to defend X, therefore you’re defending Elon. That’s how it works. Don’t like it, maybe don’t speak up for him next time.
You may need gasoline, but you don’t need BP’s gasoline. By choosing to buy BP’s gasoline, you support everything BP has ever done. Don’t want to support them, buy different gasoline.
FWIW, I’m not sure if I have a Xitter account or not. I did at one point. Definitely don’t remember a password, and I probably used a former email account that I can no longer access either, so no way of recovering it if it still exists. I have a severe lack of fucks to give about it.
But, I am pro-pedantry, and your argument kinda sucked.
So you popped in to say that you essentially have nothing to say by supporting a shit tier false equivalence argument. Good for you!
“Defend” lol. I don’t give a shit about Twitter. My level of care is the same level of care I have for you: the sum of zero.
You live in a world of absolutes. It will be the end of you.
Also, fuck outta here with your needing a smart phone. You don’t need it. It just makes your life more convenient.
You support child labor. Don’t like it? Maybe don’t speak up next time.
Apologies for upsetting you. It wasn’t my intention, but I will not take back my opinion that if you have a X account, you are supporting Elon.
Owning a cellular phone is in no way supporting child labor. And even if we were to suspend reality enough to agree that it is, then YOU not only are admitting that you support Elon, but you ALSO support child labor.
Is that true? Do you support child labor and Elon?
Some things are absolute, bud. But not all things are.
Learn this and do better.
Who are you people? Upsetting me? How the hell did you reach that conclusion?
Be honest with me. How hard is your dick when you’re responding? You have an extremely smug way about you. Which is typical of the far left that comprise the majority membership of Lemmy.
“learn this and do better” for fuck sakes.
Though I’m glad you and I agree that you do indeed support child labor. It’s nice to have common ground.
I guess reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit.
k.
I’m keeping it just long enough to harass his ass. I’ll be all over him like Joe Biden on an ice cream cone, or Elon Musk on Trumps dick.
I promise you: you’re not harassing him. You ARE however, supporting him by having an account.
Reminder: if you have american citizenship, all support everything those fucko’s do
People aren’t born on Twitter.
