Yeah, they put it behind a paywall so all the features you got with the app for free before, you now have to pay for it. Meanwhile, for those that don't pay, you can still tweet and shite, but the app itself is severely limited.



None of what you said is true

I like that Musk doesn’t hold back when people criticize him or his companies.

This is a living example of how people with “frick you” money reacts to bullies.

Find one single post where I ever said anything about the guy. You seem so confident, shouldn't be hard, right?
I’m sitting on the toilet killing time here. I’m not searching your post history. All you OT Moderates say and think the same things. If you broke the mold this time and never said anything about Elon Musk ever, then ok I’ll take your word for it.

I have no idea, but the posts talking about it were whacked. Looks like an RA was sent.

My offer to purchase Jones for $12 still stands, though.

Twitter’s value has plummeted by almost two-thirds since Elon Musk acquired the company in October 2022, one of the social media company’s only remaining external investors has admitted.

Fidelity, an asset manager that held a stake in Twitter worth about $20m after Musk acquired the business for $44bn, said in a corporate filing that its stake was now worth just under $6.6m. That would value the overall company, now officially called X Holdings Corp after Musk’s early venture X.com, at just $14.75bn.


Not a defense, but isn't this a bit misleading. As I recall, the accepted valuation of Twitter was significantly lower than the $44b he paid, and was likely part of the reason he tried to get out of the deal before it closed.

So it would be inaccurate to say he's responsible for all of that devaluation, and a real analysis would rather much more effort than the quote provides, factoring in such things as overall losses in tech valuations and so forth.

In a nutshell, there's a difference between overpaying and destruction of value from management decisions. Similar to overpaying for a house vs letting goats poop inside of it afterwards.
