What did they expect.

Just use the site, people


If the site didn't require login, sure.

Now it'll be "Just don't use the site and encourage anyone else to stay away"


Or just not.

Or, you know, just be a normal reasonable person and just use X.

We got to get rid of this extremist-esque narrative. X is more unbiased than it has ever been, and Community Notes work better than any other platform's nearest attempts.


I can only hope NVIDIA won't send an army of lawyers against this.

Because they get paid and can always wait before banning them without fingers pointing at them too hard.

Oh that shorthand is fun. Curious it works at all.

But yeah I'd switch to Kagi if I had any more forcing function. Maybe without LLM's but google continously getting worse, that'd been the actual thing for me


Publicly suggesting using a shady service to buy masses of accounts instead of just using the damn service. Mental

The shady service is only for people looking to host nitter, and it's not required. My instance uses accounts that I made myself, for free.

Yes, that is what the guide is for, that is what I was pointing out?

Wouldn't be surprised if some legal pressure wouldn't shut down these kinds of activities which involve furthering profit-gaining from going around platform limits


We should all be using more of those shady services - provided they aren't scams. Those are valuable people providing a valuable service of bypassing enshittification.

This. A good platform isn't about just having people you like on and creating an echo chamber through speech controls. Places that are like that feel downright dystopian.

What is it about?

It's not him who's wrecked. It's just some poor souls who cant't stand how right he is while he expresses that with autistic crudeness.

Musk is the same guy he was 10 years ago, still working his ass off on visionary projects, beating rest of the world on those fronts. And we love him for that!


The thing is, it's difficult to tell what his opinions actually are when he's so committed to trolling and being crude. Even if you sussed them all out and agreed with them, he wouldn't be someone you'd want to emulate, just on the basis that he has a hard time articulating anything consistently. If it's the crudeness that you love, then I guess the opinions themselves take a back seat. But at that point you're just cheering for an agent of chaos, rather than having a consistent set of beliefs of your own.

Nope, I appreciate being unapologetically right. Instead of lying and causing other harms just to satisfy fee-fees.

  > cant't stand how right he is
That's.... convenient. No need to interrogate the stated reasons why someone you admire is not universally and uncritically beloved. I'll just ignore the reasons they themselves repeatedly give and instead assume they actually hate how correct he is about everything. Despite the things he was famously wrong about like COVID cases in 2020 going to 0 in a matter of weeks.

If you have to dig that far, you're not doing very well.

Being truth-seeking means you're willing to be wrong more times than your opponents, which do statements that say nothing instead. He takes an engineering approach to all problems, and yes that sometimes means painful iteration, but at least he has the _chance_ of arriving at truth and right solutions. We owe people that take that brunt this whole world.


Drift cars make efficient use of the whole width of the road, too.

There's a way to have 1000 poor decisions with your arch sure. I use Omarchy to avoid just that.
