I'm becoming convinced that whereas I originally thought Elon was intentionally tanking the company so he could bankrupt it and write it off while having enough plausible deniability to tell his creditors he tried his best, what hes actually doing is being a pathetic manchild no one wants to be friends with, so He's trying to manipulate twitter to make people be his friends. There's reason to believe He's adjusted the algorithm to boost his own tweets. He invites banned people back to the platfirm because "he's a free speech absolutist" which not only is doing them a favor, its also blowing one of their favorite dog whistles. He introduces a payment scheme for "top posters" that when you dig into it, it seems like what makes someone a top poster is when they interact with him. This next turn, people are blocking his tweets, and he doesn't want to be blocked, so he's getting rid of the feature. I'm sure, too, this will also earn him points with the right wing cult he's been nurturing through unbanning their accounts and giving them money
