Nonsense, Zuk says right there that it is a friendly public space for open conversation.

Join up. Post PoliBoard memes and see how fast it takes to get banned.

Safe to say it will be modded exactly like Facebook and Instagram.

Do some of you realize that he bought Twitter by leveraging Tesla stock and that Tesla's stock has a P/E ratio of around 75? That's insane! He owes Google a ton of money and he has to pay interest on his loan which is insanely high. Plus, if the stock value dips below the threshold, he will either have to put up more stock or pay the margin requirements. Twitter isn't making any money to pay all of that.

No Thanks. Without ever visiting the site I am confident it is full of left wing pussies.
Someone go post a positive Trump post and lets see how it goes.

I like Elon but Twitter sucks now. Can’t even read anything without an account.

Why would anyone want more Facebook and instagram?

quote:

Looks like Meta and Facebook have been working behind the scenes for months getting influencers, celebrities, and companies on the app for launch. A ton of major brands and people already with active accounts and posting.


It’s using instagram. The narcissists don’t have to do much more than they already do. The name is from Instagram’s messaging app that was shut down several years ago.
quote:

Instagram’s blue checks will port over to Threads accounts

Thanks to the deep ties between Threads and Instagram, you can quickly share posts from Threads to your Instagram story or feed.


Same old leftist censorship just hidden by trying to separate penalties from instagram profile initially.
quote:

With some exceptions for extreme cases like the sharing of child exploitation imagery, moderation actions Meta takes against a Threads account will not impact its associated Instagram account, according to internal documents I’ve seen.


This is also play on mastodon and controlling federation of social media pushing the rainbow alphabet’s protocol- ActivityPub.
quote:

Meta plans to eventually hook Threads into ActivityPub, the decentralized social media protocol that also powers Mastodon.

quote:

In January 2018, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) published the ActivityPub standard as a Recommendation. Lead author Christine Lemmer-Webber notes that the team predominantly identified as queer, which led to features that help users and administrators protect against "undesired interaction."

I'm sure this will be just as successful as the metaverse.

Why is this becoming a Elon vs Mark thing? It's not even a competition, really. Musk bought something that is tiny in comparison to Instagram and less than tiny when compared to Facebook.
