U.S. National Tsunami Warning Center says its Twitter account can no longer provide tsunami warnings in real time
@BNONews Because you always want to know the wave is coming six hours after the event. It's kind of like putting tornado warnings on tape delay...
#TwitterMigration
@BNONews Can the news get any weirder?
@BNONews is there one on here?
@BNONews haha I’m in danger
@BNONews LOL! I bet there are still bot working but not the useful ones
@BNONews @alfredo_liberal so they’re finding other outlets right?
@bornach @BNONews @alfredo_liberal 🤣 love that. But hey, the options aren't mutually exclusive, they can start to invest in other outlets before the old ones close - or in addition to the old ones if they don't close! They could even, being literally the media, open new ones and promote them themselves.
@BNONews The ocean just needs to be mindful of Elon’s silly business model that will never work.

@BNONews #ALT4you Tweet from NWS Tsunami Alerts @NWS_NTWC

⛔@Twitter is now limiting automated tweets and as a result, this account can no longer post all #Tsunami Warnings, Advisories, Watches, and Information Statements as they are issued. We will make every effort to continue manual posts 🧵(1/5)

@BNONews

They should come to Mastodon.

@BNONews hunh. How much would a mastodon account cost them it must be expensive.

@BNONews

Twitter phasing out its-self. Just illustrates that services like this belong in the public domain using ditto tools.

We should not depend on the quirks, untransparent decisions and business rationales of random private enterprise and tycoons.

@BNONews so why are they still using Twitter?
@BNONews Musk wants his money, need to pay up to use the API.
@BNONews Twitter socks now, I am sure most accounts who very actively posts are getting shadowbanned.
$8 doesn't give literally any freedom.
@BNONews Musk says tsunami warnings violate MAGA protection rules he made up.
@BNONews PSA: Twitter (or any other social media service) is not a reliant source of critical alerts. Get a NOAA certified weather radio instead
@BNONews I still don't understand why, but I'm at least 80% convinced Musk is deliberately destroying Twitter. The degree of ineptitude required for him to accidentally do everything wrong is hard to imagine.
@BNONews If only they had detected the ground shifting in social media and the flood of people surging to Mastodon.

@BNONews @cydharrell ... FYI re: the future of government notification services on Twitter.
@zenkat @BNONews yeah I saw...& same for BART alerts 😬 . the dumbest timeline (in more than one sense)
@cydharrell @BNONews Nationalize Twitter! Viva L'Interwebs Libre!
@zenkat are you guys back in the city?
@BNONews
Nice! This is how useless services should be regulated as opposed to the life-saving facts of emperor Elon Musk. 🤡

@U.S.NationalTsunamiWarningCenter: Time to switch. Only the dead bird waits for the (shit) storm. 💩
