As for revenue sharing, take musk out of the picture and if I were to ask about a social platform that is primarily supported by subscriptions and content generators get paid, you would be all for it. Do you apply the same criticism with YouTube sharing revenue?
Come on, I can't take you seriously for criticizing a social network for sharing revenue with creators. We're just so far apart on basic values nothing I can say could change your mind
The kind of toxicity and algorithmic pushing of content on Twitter isn't quite like other platforms. Users are regularly exposed to content from deliberately inflammatory users. Your timeline can be filled with retweets, suggested content, or replies to accounts you don't follow by accounts you do. Adding a monetary reward for being inflammatory before addressing the toxicity is the problem. Adding revenue share to Twitter is like throwing money into a mosh pit; it wasn't done thoughtfully enough to not make things worse.
If Musk wanted to expand revenue share, he could have done it in thoughtful ways. Expanding the subscriptions feature would have been a good start.
Alternative check marks and forcing people to put parody in the account were both caused by the idiotic decision to put blue checkmarks for sale. There's no need to conspicuously identify government/business accounts as "no really, this is for real" if you haven't completely devalued the "no really, this is for real" symbol of your platform. And there's no need to put "parody" on an Elon parody account if you can clearly see that it's not verified.
Are you saying that API restrictions is a good thing? You seem to be suggesting that, but I don't know why you'd feel that way. Revenue sharing just incentivizes inflammatory behavior, which is an obvious net-negative for the platform as a whole. Culling of old accounts is neutral at best.
And the DM spam problems were basically unchanged until just the past week when he forced everyone's DMs closed. He did manage to introduce new spam problems though, because now every large account's replies is full of the most braindead nonsense, just because the user paid $8. I'll gladly take crypto spam instead this.
Also, the text you quoted said "no product improvements", but you're saying that the product is not "unchanged". I agree the product has been changed, but I would agree with the GP's statement that there haven't been improvements.
