Are paying members gonna get some sort of proration for the bullshit Musk sold them. This whole thing is beyond hilarious.
Wonder what mental gymnastics the fanboys/chuds are doing to spin this into “yes, Mr. Musk you are so smart, please piss on me next”?
F Musk & Twitter. They can both rot in hell.
I think he got this.
Until there is a viable Twitter competitor, this will continue and people will keep using it.
There needs to be one that scales. Mastodon had its chance and it's clear people don't want it. Maybe the answer is Bluesky, but that's not going to happen unless they open up their doors.
I can't believe I'm rooting for Meta, but their Threads app might work out and it will be better once it syncs with ActivityPub.

The limits are so low as well. Imagine paying for Twitter blue and getting rate limited still.
Is it possible to use our applicable data retrieval tools and host the data separately, so Elon can't hoard it all?
Didn't twitter just default on a massive google cloud bill on the first of July? This is pure speculation, but it wouldn't surprise me if the rate limiting is a direct consequence of them having to massively scale back infra because of getting kicked from Google cloud
