One step away from A Clockwork Orange where users' eyes will be held open so they are forced to see fashy-curious content

It keeps getting worse it's almost funny

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.

When toxic idiots on Twitter drive everyone off, they'll be the only ones left.

Then they'll turn on each other, harassing bots and trolls who'll scream that nothing's being done because they are being dragged.

Then when only the most toxic are left, and they have no one else to intimidate, harass, or make miserable; they'll leave.

I have him blocked. I can't stand seeing his posts!

I've blocked every ad I've ever seen on the app. I haven't used it in a while and I doubt I'll ever go back now.

The only thing left that I use it for is getting alerts about live police chases so I can tune in. Ill leave that going until those people move to other platforms.

RIP Twitter

So…. You just get hit with ad bots all day long?

@dirtmayor Now that's just stupid. And I generally like the guy.

I think I get were the “server costs” come from. The twitter algorithm they pushed to GitHub FIRST gets a set of like a thousand tweets to show you, then filters them, getting rid of blocked accounts for example. If you use one of the large block lists, you know, to bypass the lack of moderation, there is the “risk” that they neeed to do another request to get enough content to fill your front page of irrelevant stuff you don’t want to see.

What could possibly go wrong?
