Next up: Youtube limits users to a cumulative 2 hours of viewing per month, unless they have Youtube Premium

On second thoughts, please do it

They're already limiting adblock users to 3 videos.....well they're experimenting

It's like there's some kind of dumbest decision contest. Who's next? Meta? TikTok? Instagram? I know about YouTube.

Maybe MySpace will have a resurgence.

It really is a bad day for social sites smh

The fediverse has been doing great. Server issues from a bunch of new users but that's just a symptom of something good.

Space Muggle destroyed its ad revenues by allowing the worst people on Earth on Twitter. No one gives a shit about his blue checks, so he had to make up some shit to brute force people to subscribe (you have 10 times the amount if you’re a blue subscriber)

In the meantime, Bluesky had to pause the registration, because even with a system based on invitation they couldn’t handle the influx of new users.

The moment Bluesky is out for everyone Twitter is dead. It will become an echo chamber for angry right-wingers with no one to listen.

Muggle cracks me up, I think you meant mogul, but I prefer it.

He gonna avada kadavra himself, and we get to watch with popcorn.

Well, he is definitely a transphobic piece of shit with no magical power, so that makes sense to call him what the other well known transphobic piece of shit would have called him.

I’m not quite sure yet if the best move against TERF Karen is to cancel her completely or turn her own creation against her.

For the time being I’ll go for the latter though.

How can we help? Like if I wanted to donate to bluesky? So they can get more servers? Is it like Lemmy? Or is it close?

[–] mrsfrizzlegavemelsd 4 points 1 year ago

lol I got off Twitter years ago and I’m so glad. Bugs me that can’t entirely delete a Twitter account though..

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It’s so dumb. I don’t get why people still use twitter man.

Please pardon my ignorance, but who is actually being limited by a maximum 600 tweets per day? It can't be your average (or even moderately active) Twitter user, right?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

don't worry it is

new accounts are limited by 300

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

@freehugs @FizzlePopBerryTwist isn't the limit reading 600 tweets, not sending out 600, since it is to prevent data scraping?

Enjoying watching old monolithic social media kill itself, giving rise to people adopting the fediverse.
