>Can you only see ~70 or so of a person's followers / followings now? Just noticed this happening today, a couple weeks ago it would still show everyone if you kept scrolling down.

Obnoxious intro to the article and not in the spirit of transparent journalism whatsoever. The linked GitHub profile has over 300 repositories, many of which are related to Twitter but none that contain the phrase “musk”.

None of the “twitter” ones have direct correlation with this article either.

In other words, Mashable is stuffing the source because it thinks it now has the rights to the story. But yes.. I apologize for being so petty.

Isn't this the case with every famous account?
