  • idk maybe it’s just frivolous thinking, but imo since social media is corrupted by corporate profiteering brought about by venture capitalists, a social media platform that can be scaled and run very cheaply and in a decentralised fashion (think JUST text posts, all media has to be somehow hosted externally) could genuinely succeed, and be BOTH a mainstream place, while also being friendly to its users, and creating a friendly and cozy environment 🤷‍♀️

    do you have access to their financial reports? bc i’m not sure how one can make claims like that otherwise 🤷‍♀️

    like, i kinda see it wrt to the whole blue checkmark fiasco, but the issue with profitability goes much deeper than that, both in terms of time (during which this problem existed) and design (how much is it embedded into twitter as an application)

    as much as i hate elon musk tho, it is a sort of reasonable strategy in case you’re trying to prevent incurring further hosting charges while you’re migrating 🤷‍♀️

    not sure why he can’t just pay the hosting bill but whatever, that’s secondary i guess
