People haven't forgotten and far from nothing's happened, twitter's a lot less usable than it was a few months ago. The bot problem is out of control and the nft/AI issue is amplified worse than on pixiv and artstation. I can also tell user engagement is down, probably due to fatigue.

It's been (unfortunately) non stop Elon news since the purchase. You are right though that no one really knows how good or bad it is beneath the surface. The only public gauge we have is the TSLA stock (which kind of covers all of Elon's companies) and it's been dropping like a rock. My guess is that he's margin called up the ass, which isn't a good sign.

When you owe your stock broker money and don't have the cash to cover your ass, they force you to sell some of your stuff to settle the balance. Rich people don't usually have billions of dollars in cash lying around, they take out a loan against the stock that they own and use that to pay for expenses. If the price of the stock they put up for collateral drops, it's possible that the amount they owe the bank could be larger than the amount of credit the bank extended, in which case, they force sell the stock, further lowering the amount of collateral and potentially creating a vicious cycle.

https://old.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/zlmhvt/dont_forget_elon_has_100b_in_personal_loans_from/

I wouldn't bet that a "reverse short squeeze" is gonna happen, but it explains that a big chunk of the stock is collateral.

Twitter was bought with a $13 billion loan. They weren't margin backed loans, but the banks that loaned him the cash are considering moving to TSLA as collateral, since Twitter itself doesn't seem to be able to pay it off (according to the banks themselves).

I just started using it myself so I don't know much, but I like it so far. There's a rating system on art so I can see that as a turn off for begs but I think it's based. Also you have to be vetted before being allowed into the "premium" section, although anyone can post art right away. I don't know anything about the forum culture, I haven't posted in the community yet. There's no mobile app which turns zoomers away but the site's fine on mobile. And best of all, they ban AI slop and moderation seems great on that front.

Unfortunately, it's often vocal minorities that have an effect on masses of people, with only those ignorant of their noise spared.
I don't care about the left/right mess, but to deny Twitter's overt reach won't make it go away, and in fact will likely make people more vulnerable.

yeah but he's not, he's banned a number of people already for trivial shit.
If Elon would have just designated Twitter a free speech zone and locked the doors it would be mission accomplished. But no, he has to earn that 44 billion back, and he's finding out what the previous owners already knew: McDonald's doesn't want their ads next to memes by Groyper1488.

Before the musk takeover (and possibly still since there's a possibility this is just a puppet show to push some narrative) it was a controlled propaganda apparatus where left wing views would be amplified and right wing views could be suppressed or banned easily. Thats why despite the low active users, twitter had a disproportionate influence in journalistic and political circles. Its why practically overnight every institution, politician, and media personality made a Twitter account. They got the memo that Twitter was a safe, controlled environment that would protect your brand and narrative (as long as you support progressive nonsense or stay neutral). Would be interesting to know how many government spooks were involved in early twitter that dipped out as the musk takeover approached.

Mmmh, then maybe you could make it so that when you create a new account, you select whether you are an artist or a "supporter". Supporters are essentially just there to follow artists, but can create curated lists of their favourite artists, you could follow a supporter that have a taste similar to yours so you can discover new artists, like people that use Twitter only to retweet. And at the same time you could make it so that artists have options to manually accept if they want to be in someone's list/be "retweeted". So you can still have a bit of community and interact with clients and fans, but the focus of the website is still the art.
