This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I wonder when he says “it makes no sense” if he is just confused by the complexity of it. Because blocking is more complicated than it might seem at first. It introduces issues where different people see different versions of things, and in some ways blocking can be a little like choosing to put your head in the sand regarding someone, but they can still be around, flinging shit at you.
Yet another reason to be glad I quit using it in October 2022.
There's no good reason to make people interact with people who are bothering them.
Yea no way that's happening. The guy can get away with a lot but burning the entire app to the ground probably has a few legal safeguards.
You could argue against creating the feature, but once it already exists and it's not taking up any real processing power or cluttering the interface, why would you ever remove any feature. Does he understand it? No. Do some people use it and find it beneficial? Probably, yeah. Are you forced to use it? No. So what's the problem?
It's like a car manufacturer ordering a recall to remove the the mirror on the passenger side visor because he never uses it. Some people do, my dude, it's not hurting anything, and it will actually cost you money to remove it instead of leaving it. Just leave it alone, dude.
Or... he's not being honest and he wants to remove it because it hurts his ego to know that so many block his account. Yeah, it's probably that.
This is what it sounds like when a severely divorced person screams, "WHY WON'T THIS FUCKING COMPANY FAIL!!! I'M DOING EVERYTHING I CAN TO ELIMINATE THIS THREAT AND IT WON'T DIE!"
He literally bought it to try to make a payment processor and be king of the internet.
Only twitter users think twitter is important.
It makes no sense.
I truly can't imagine how this is true. It's such a simple thing to understand.
'You'll listen to nazi propaganda even if we have to shove it down your throat!'
Musk probably
Don't most app stores have terms and conditions that require social media websites to have actual functional block features? Having them only work for DMs doesn't feel very functional...
Imagine if Elon was playing a long con game and is actually trying to kill Twitter on purpose by disguising himself as the rest of the Republicans in support of them.
Like this "10 dimensional chess" game is him actually just doing the most mundane and simple changes to kill the platform intentionally.
Probably spelled "cents" incorrectly.
Everytime I think the platform can't get any worse this guy proves me wrong the next week.
