Elon Musk is a gross, racist, blood emerald heir eugenicist (basically a Nazi). If you're here, you're complicit. X is a dead platform. I no longer use it.

CANNOT believe the lack of care in the packing job Bath & Body Works did on my wife's order. As she says in the video-the ONLY Black Friday thing she got. I've shipped things for 22 YEARS. I've NEVER seen packing like this. Shame on @bathbodyworks. #shippingfail #bathandbodyworks

@wtravishubbard There's a lot to be said about the simplicity found at sites like, excuse the French, motherfuckingwebsite.com

@redjacket_3 @heydason @felipeugoulart @yu_angela @udemy Same. And I agree.

Twitter has lost 50 of its top 100 advertisers since Elon Musk took over npr.org/2022/11/25/113…

@pootlepress I often wonder the same, I haven't used it personally for ~10 years after getting locked out. I have a new business page on it I don't really maintain. Marketplace as I understand, is huge. Groups too apparently- wow. I know before that it was mostly family stuff for me. Meh. 🤣

Is anyone out there still using Facebook? For personal stuff ? My timeline has been dead for the last year? Groups are still going strong, but Facebook can’t survive long term on groups right ? Or am I’m missing something??

@thespacedmonkey Mastodon for sure, for tech stuff.

Seems like twitter is dying. Where should I go? I want to keep this amazing WordPress / development community I have built here on twitter.

WTF even is this 🤦🏽‍♀️

Fifty Shades of Whey@davenewworld_2

Mercedes is adding a subscription fee to their electric vehicles that will increase horsepower and torque. It's happening. Late-stage capitalism is going to have people paying a monthly fee to improve the performance of a car they already bought.

What these idiots don't understand is simple, and that's probably why they don't understand it. HATE SPEECH IS NOT FREE SPEECH.

This is precisely it. It’s crucial we acknowledge that Musk is not just driven by narcissism or greed. We must not depoliticize his actions when they have such specific political valence. What he is doing needs to be seen in the context of a reactionary assault on democracy.

Ronald Brownstein@RonBrownstein

Musk has left no doubt that empowering and amplifying the most divisive far-right purveyors of disinformation & hate speech is a principal goal for him on the site. Claiming to champion democracy, he's systematically deploying Twitter to benefit authoritarianism.

@duke_of_germany @Pleyar1 @falkreon @Ryan_Treadwell Exactly. It also feels a lot like Tweetdeck used to work.

@wesbos Okay, HOW do you mute all US politics? I have a ton of keywords/phrases muted-- do you do it like that? Or is there a better way haha

English

Wes Bos@wesbos·21 Kas

lol I don't think these are bots. The biggest drop corresponds exactly with the announcement of that guy being let back onto the platform. (I have all US politics muted, so thats why I'm not using the name, relax) 🇨🇦

You can tell twitter has been doing bot cleanup this weekend, follower + / - on all my twitter accounts dipped. Here is mine over the last 45 hours

@Pleyar1 @falkreon @Ryan_Treadwell I dig Masto & its UI.. it's Twitter-LIKE, despite being decentralized.. I've found a bunch of people there, Cohost I have ONE person, and the UI, I hate it. It's kinda like Tumblr, or even kind of reminds me of like, if Medium or Substack was uglier...reminds me of Livejournal 🤣

Plaer1@Pleyar1·21 Kas

@falkreon @Ryan_Treadwell why masto over cohost? *not trying to nitpick, i legit wanna know where the value is <3

@wtravishubbard Craigslist WAS so great, but as usual, once the spammers and scammers take hold.. I even got a job on there once! Now the jobs section is crap.. MAYBE if you're trying to sell something. But yeah, that UI sure don't change hahaha

Travis Hubbard@wtravishubbard·21 Kas

If you think a modern UI and a huge staff are necessary for a tech company to succeed How do you explain Craigslist?

@MikeElgan Yeah, all the trending things are like, troll crap. Racist or nasty or.. just awful.

My snarky reply is blowing up, and the comments illustrate my point: Twitter has become a shitposter paradise.

@g33konaut Absolutely. More spam, WAY more fake followers/users

@betterways_dev Yep. Yesterday I'd try to retweet and it was popping up a full screen, totally blank slider that I had to back out of. Super weird. Restarting the app worked. But so odd. Never seen it before.

I'm seeing more and more bugs on the Twitter web app: - "This Tweet is Unavailable" messages everywhere (refresh sometimes helps, sometimes doesn't) - After sending the DM, the last message sometimes lingers and I have to refresh the page - things becoming unresponsive

@DerekAshauer @webflow Did the same thing recently. Webflow is cool I guess, it looks & works ok, but it's no WP replacement.

English

Derek Ashauer@DerekAshauer·19 Kas

Edited my first @webflow site: not having a common header/footer is an immediate 🚩. Maybe useful for very small brochure sites but anything more it’s worthless. The workflow is atrocious as well, can’t imagine non-tech actually figuring it out. #WordPress is safe.

@saraliDev The Udemy one @yu_angela does is GREAT. It's here below, & only $13.99 for a few more days. Seriously, it's incredible. Her style & delivery, the information STICKS. ⬇️ udemy.com/course/the-com…
