I'd love to see that, Meta has...well, Meta money and Meta lawyers and Meta pull. Twitter has uh...well i guess unpaid bills?
Would be fun to see just to have another nail in Twitter's coffin
Based on what? I'm pretty sure if similar social media networks weren't allowed to compete with each other, Lemmy and Mastodon wouldn't exist. Not to mention Facebook.
They claim Zuck snatched some Twitter devs from them and used their expertise to develop Threads, the competing part isn't much of an issue on itself, but rather that they could be using code and knowhow acquired from their stay at Twitter.
Incompetent billionaires lashing out with lawsuits...
