Lauren WeinsteinNow comes the interesting part. In the face of Meta's Threads, does Musk change his behavior with #Twitter -- pricing, verifications, moderation, etc. in any ways?

@lauren Only thing that will revive his platform and put it on the competitive stage is ActivityPub or AT protocol. Otherwise it's dead in the water, especially once Threads launches AP.
kkeller@Nour @lauren if Musk won't let people use his API, he definitely won't let Twitter do ActivityPub.
But even if he did, I wouldn't be surprised if many existing ActivityPub instances preemptively blocked Twitter's instances. People are already talking about doing so for Threads, which is just "normal" level malicious. Musk's Twitter is so much more genuinely evil.
