Are you saying we can’t have a little fun watching Elon slowly destroy his new 44 billion dollar toy?
Many people relied on Twitter before Dorsey left the company and have been stuck there, out of the blue they became hostages to the idiotic whims of a sick man who hasn't had a healthy night's sleep in what seems like decades, a mind eroding into dust.
I prefer to feel empathy for these people. As with Reddit, this whole thing is a grotesque charade with plenty of collateral damage.
Unfortunately there are people, especially artists, who rely on Twitter for their career. Few social media platforms are widely used enough and enable viral spread enough to serve those needs. Mastodon unfortunately doesn't have enough adoption for it, and Instagram can be a lot more fussy when it comes to sharing and discoverability.
