I have blocked only one person on Twitter: him.

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

Hey Twitter, it’s not a competition. You can get rid of your users at whatever pace suits you best. Even though Reddit is clearly speedrunning this game, and you’re getting left behind, doesn’t mean you have to double your efforts.

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

Here's the context, bigots complaining about being blocked

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.)

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...

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 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.

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

Awww Musky’s feelings got hurt that so many people have blocked him on twitter lol

Yeah, totally expecting that. His aim of buying twitter, is to prop up a republican presidential candidate / authoritarians in other countries that can help him evade taxes and get more subsidies.

4channers are gonna abuse the hell out of this for some fun. Can guarantee it.

Ayyyy Elon, so we're going for full chaos??

Lemme grab my popcorn before the change starts a nuclear reaction.

Surely a sight to behold. Lol

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.

Time to promote the hell out of Mastodon

Doesn't he himself use this feature a ton? 😂

I’m happier since I don’t use twitter. Thanks Elon, you’re making things easier for us.

I smile every time when I see that Musky did some more stupid shit, because I know that every time he does shit like that, Mastodon grows more. And with that, the entire Fediverse gets stronger.

Go on Elon! Don't Stop please! Kill Twitter!

This can't be serious...

This has to be his worst decision at twitter so far.

I only see this as going well for him/Twitter.

Not really, it’s definitely going to be interesting to watch it go up in flames 🍿

Wow. He really is a tool.

This kind of garbage is exactly why I don't use Twitter anymore. I don't know what is wrong with Musk, but something is up in his head.

It keeps getting worse it's almost funny

Twitter's fundamental model of user interaction is said to be broken, and lots of things have been made to mitigate it. And now everything goes into the shitter because of Elon's hurt feelings.
