Can no longer edit, but I should add troll accounts to that list as well.
And we've gone full circle: objective analysis, facts, longform journalism, etc. are now what "appeals to conservatives".
Shill/bot/propaganda accounts don't care about 2FA. Those constitue a huge percentage of Twitter, so I'm not surprised at the low adoption rate.

"Scale and sophistication" scale relatively with time. Those servers we ran were relatively at the same level of scale and sophistication for their time. The only differentiator here is uptime, which has gotten worse as time has gone on. Five 9s used to be the standard. Three 9s seems to be the new standard.

I ran DNS servers, among other things, in the late 90s with better uptime than these "multi-DC/AZ/geo redundant" services everyone uses these days.
I wonder how the office politics translates to this dip in user base.
