Jeff KosseffI briefly returned to Twitter today after a month hiatus. All that remains, it appears, is crypto promotion and debates about debates about debates about Matt Yglesias tweets. I think that the hiatus will continue.
Parker Molloy@jkosseff It's taken a really weird abandoned mall turn lately
@parkermolloy I’d almost go so far as to argue that moderating garbage content is essential for a quality social media product.
@jkosseff yep 🤷🏻♀️
Dan Kennedy@parkermolloy @jkosseff I keep hearing that. When I look at “Following,” it seems very much the same as it always did.
@dankennedy_nu @parkermolloy Lucky. For me, it’s all Yglesias, all the time. No thanks.
Renee DiResta@jkosseff @dankennedy_nu @parkermolloy I unfollowed quite some time ago bc it was just a lot and now it’s in the “you might like” nonstop.
I had a small fit about the ‘basis points’ take and then wandered away again.
@jkosseff @dankennedy_nu My "For You" tab is just non-stop far-right stuff. I opened it last week and the very first tweet I saw was from an account I'd blocked months earlier. Just a bad user experience.
R. Alison Mason@parkermolloy @jkosseff @dankennedy_nu It’s designed to get people screaming at each other. The whole idea is untenable.
@knower_of_secrets @parkermolloy @jkosseff I can't explain this. But I just scrolled through my "For You" tab, and it was all quality stuff from people I follow.
Mike Masnick ✅@jkosseff @parkermolloy to which, some troll will ask why you're against free speech...
Joe Gordon@Noupside @mmasnick @jkosseff @parkermolloy I thought us users were the product and sufficient moderation was a necessary precondition, like not having too much chlorine in the fish tank
Lizard@Joe_the_L @Noupside @mmasnick @jkosseff @parkermolloy Under Musk, I'd argue, they've decided to have no chlorine. And not worry about changing the filters on the air pump. If it's working right now, it'll keep working fine forever, no one has to maintain it or clean it.
argonaut@Noupside @mmasnick @jkosseff @parkermolloy Moderation is society. Moderation has been the human endeavour since the Cro Magnon days…
