I tried to enter my old twitter account the other day as I needed to check some info that was only in a tweets.
I couldn't see tweets without login so In. tried to login and they pop-up me with so much shit that I didn't even tried. They didn't trusted my login and I couldn't be bothered to close so many pop-ups to enter the verification code they sent to the email (while of course saying that if I logged in their shitty app or with a google account it all will be easier).
Sum up. I didn't check the info. And for now onwards if your organization only post on twitter your organization is non-existent to me as I cannot access that info, plain as that.
We've attempted this twice now... too many people are addicted to twitter and won't quit, they are addicted to the twitter drama, no matter how bad the disinformation and hate speech get.
I think there will (or could) come a time. There has to be a limit. "Elon Musk sucks and Twitter is full of Nazis" doesn't seem to be the limit, though.
The solution is to call anyone who uses Twitter a Nazi apologist. And it's the truth. Anyone who uses Twitter thinks there's a valid excuse for supporting Nazis, and a level of Nazism by the company owner that isn't bad enough to leave over. The solution is shame.
i wouldnt be using twitter but if i want to see don trump jr say that tim walz drinks horse cum, i need to be using twitter with an account unfortunately.
I mean, I've never had a twitter account but I've heard it plenty. Just peek over at /r/conservative once a week or so.
I finally got around to deleting Facebook this year too when I found out they'll cross post your Instagram stuff to Facebook if you don't click a box somewhere.
I get a lot more stuff done without the doomscrolling.
40 million per month? For check marks? Shit, coming together with a unified move to mastodon to save money and society is the most painless of obligations for those in the limelight. I judge all who remain on that hell plane made manifest.
it's telling that not too long ago in threads like this there would always be someone chiming in to justify using twitter. now, nothing. they still suckle the twitter teat, they just gave up trying to defend it
I guessed that from context and was just making fun of it. Writing it that way is definitely confusing and shouldn’t be done. "mm" is internationally recognized as "millimeters". In financial papers, sometimes, Roman numerals "MM" are used to indicate millions, but then it should strictly be capitalized. In my opinion, for general use, number followed by a single "m" conveys the idea best ($40m), and followed by "k" for thousand ($40k). Use capitals for more formal settings ($40M and $40K).
There was almost one but then Xitter nuked their public API which makes it almost impossible, from memory. They knew this would happen, and they did everything they could to stop it.
What other site do we know of that made their API a pain to use killing the app that I used to tolerate that site that a good chunk of is migrated from?
