My prediction: In light of these latest shenanigans, #Google and #Apple are going to end up delisting #Twitter from their app stores.

As more and more people that I followed have migrated here, I've pretty much stopped using my Twitter account. Also, it's safe to say that Twitter is a hate site now, and I don't want to contribute to it.

Musk's Twitter "amnesty" plan for suspended accounts alarms activists

Twitter is Going Great!

Twitter is Going Great is a project inspired by Web3 is Going Just Great to track the latest examples of how Twitter is actively falling to pieces thanks to its current owner Elon Musk (with special guests Jack Dorsey and the Saudi Arabian royal family).

Part of me is glad that #Twitter is going away, because I didn't like the person I was becoming over there. Everyone was so angry all the time, and I allowed myself to get yanked into it. #TwitterExit #TwitterTheFinalSeason #TwitterExodus #ElonExit #ElonExodus

Be patient with newbies, #Fediverse. We're going to see A LOT of them over the next couple of weeks. I'm not saying let them walk all over us, just to be patient as they learn.

They're right. #Twitter was a repository for a lot of garbage, but it was also a valuable #historical record. For example, it contained on-the-ground accounts of the war in #Ukraine, as well as recent uprisings in #Iran.

On a micro level, it also contains accounts from many dead people, including people who weren't famous. Those accounts mean a lot to the friends and family those people left behind. I sometimes visit [my dead friends] Doug Mataconis' account and remember.

It's a damn shame it's all going to be gone soon, and all so some egomaniacal man-child could "own the libs."

Twitter’s potential collapse could wipe out vast records of recent human history

What happens when the world’s knowledge is held in a quasi-public square owned by a private company that could soon go out of business?

MIT Technology Review

Two weeks ago, I made some predictions about #Twitter. Specifically, I said that by today:

* Advertisers would flee like rats off the Titanic
* So would hordes of users
* The app stores would delist it
* Its IT service providers would deplatform it

Half of those predictions have come true! My biggest mistake about the other 2 is that Twitter's infrastructure will crash before those things even have a chance to happen. Or the FTC will lower the boom. Or both.

Earlier this week, #Twitter reminded me of people evac'ing ahead of a hurricane.

Now, it's like the hurricane has struck. Everywhere you look is in ruins, lots of people are gone, those who are left are wandering around in a sort of daze as they try to gather up whatever survived and move onto whatever is next. #TwitterExit #twitter #TwitterTheFinalSeason #elonexit

@briannawu I really thought I'd not have much use for the ☄️ emoji after the midterms, but it's so fitting for #TwitterTheFinalSeason
