This wasn’t the case for Twitter API pricing changes.

My Twitter usage is down a lot since they killed off 3rd party clients.

Every user hostile move they've made basically halves my usage.

I used to spend way too much time on Twitter, now it's 10 minutes a week and I don't feel like I miss much.

It’s a gigantically dumbass move that’s killed off all amateur creators and consumers. My feed is just filled with full-time content creators churning out 1/20 threads that are consumed by other full time content creators.

Just a boring echochamber.

This EXTREME EMERGENCY that Musk is talking about is not AI - it's Musk himself.

He is killing engagement and ad income, has to slow the bleed, and is now looking under every rock for some gains, GOTO 1.
