OptionalBut I have so many followers!
I’m really sort of disappointed somebody hasn’t launched some transfer service for the entire platform.
There was almost one but then Xitter nuked their public API which makes it almost impossible, from memory. They knew this would happen, and they did everything they could to stop it.
What other site do we know of that made their API a pain to use killing the app that I used to tolerate that site that a good chunk of is migrated from?
Ummmm . . . Hang on . . It was, uh . . man I wanna sayyyyy . . Rowdy? Rumblejunk? Dang. Oh well. Guess it’s gone.
I still don’t get why you would want to pay for xitter.
Interstellar_12 factor authentication
CosmicTurtle0 [he/him]Yubikeys are like the same price as Twitter premium annually.
And a lot better from a security standpoint. Hell, get a Bitwarden subscription.
wander1236Authentication code apps are free.
I’m pretty sure you need to pay for twitter to use 2fa with it though. (I don’t use twitter, I’ve just heard that this is a thing)
I still have an account so I can see replies and such. Elon made SMS codes part of Twitter Blue, but authentication apps and security keys are free. It might be one of the only somewhat sensible things he’s done with the site, seeing as it’s pretty expensive to send out codes over SMS.
modifierEven for free I’m unconvinced of the value of using it on purpose.
idunnololzI only browse it for R18 stuff. Hopefully one day I will be able to get most of it from Mastodon uwu.
You are part of the problem.
Midnight WolfI do the same. Mastodon, Bluesky are fucking ghost towns, and of those who opened accounts, few use them. Lots of artists didn’t even do that (and have no alternative methods of sharing their content), so for lots it’s 🐦 porn or no porn, and brother idgaf what y’all think, I’m enjoying my porn.
You do understand that are multiple free sites dedicated to just porn, right? Porn is the probably the dumbest reason to use Twitter.
You are part of the problem that everyone else hates.
My interests are quite… niche.
Also points at my pfp
hate me, you’re still wrong <3
I’m sure there’s beastiality sites out there you can view
I’m talking artists with kink works like bdsm, cbt, feral characters, consentual rape, edge play, and things that go pretty far; not fucking beastiality. Your argument falls flat immediately, and honestly you can go fuck yourself.
You are wrong, but you are also a pretensions shitstaim. Eat shit, and die.
Musk will sue you if you stop paying.
TrickDacyI never understood the appeal regardless. The character limit, the UI, and the content is trash
BlackmistIt always just seemed like a rubbish blog.
Or even look at it.
40 million per month? For check marks? Shit, coming together with a unified move to mastodon to save money and society is the most painless of obligations for those in the limelight. I judge all who remain on that hell plane made manifest.
It would still take 6075 twitter mass subs cancellations to deplete Musk’s wealth though.
solsangraalwe need more posts like this on the front page. i’m so fucking sick of hearing about goddamn twitter
I’ve been say this for months and months but they are addicted to their followers.
it’s telling that not too long ago in threads like this there would always be someone chiming in to justify using twitter. now, nothing. they still suckle the twitter teat, they just gave up trying to defend it
I hope you are right and it’s not that I blocked all the twitter dweebs :)
I got ratioed for suggesting that OP was a piece of shit for justifying staying on twatter. I wonder where those chuds are now?
Toldryi’m so sick of hearing about twitter
we need more posts about twitter

if your happy place is considering that to be “about twitter,” then ok.
the comment stands

Nice username
mm means millions
I guessed that from context and was just making fun of it. Writing it that way is definitely confusing and shouldn’t be done. “mm” is internationally recognized as “millimeters”. In financial papers, sometimes, Roman numerals “MM” are used to indicate millions, but then it should strictly be capitalized. In my opinion, for general use, number followed by a single “m” conveys the idea best ($40m), and followed by “k” for thousand ($40k). Use capitals for more formal settings ($40M and $40K).
For sure! I hate the ambiguity that it adds. MM in upper or lowercase is something I’ve seen for millions in financial and business contexts, along with a single m for thousand. To avoid ambiguity I ended up using K for thousands and mm for millions back in the day.
skulblakaWhere did that K in thousand come from after all, anyway? M for million makes sense. K for thousand doesn’t.
That makes perfect sense, I can’t believe I didn’t make that connection - and, yeah, I’ve definitely outed myself as an American. Fair enough.
Wait, X is still a thing??
You mean Twitter?
KronusdarkWe’ve attempted this twice now… too many people are addicted to twitter and won’t quit, they are addicted to the twitter drama, no matter how bad the disinformation and hate speech get.
I think there will (or could) come a time. There has to be a limit. “Elon Musk sucks and Twitter is full of Nazis” doesn’t seem to be the limit, though.
I figured Twitter trying to dip into everyone’s pockets by paying for checkmarks would have been the limit. But what do I know, apparently.
The solution is to call anyone who uses Twitter a Nazi apologist. And it’s the truth. Anyone who uses Twitter thinks there’s a valid excuse for supporting Nazis, and a level of Nazism by the company owner that isn’t bad enough to leave over.
BakersfieldThe solution is to call anyone who uses Twitter a Nazi apologist.
The solution is shame.
At first I thought, “Good idea.” But I worry that it might start to dilute the stigma of the term ‘Nazi.’ People might start thinking, “They call everyone a nazi sympathizer. It’s not a big deal.”
If bad words only have a limited number of uses before they’re worthless, then we should be using them up against Nazis as quick as possible. Not saving our words while the Nazis grow exponentially more normalised. If we keep the Nazis down, they’ll remain a small threat and our words will have time to recharge. But if we let the Nazis gather strength, then they’ll overwhelm us faster than our words can recharge.
Twitter being owned by a Nazi isn’t even enough. There is nothing that will ever pry their pathetic fingers from Twitter. Fuckin’ Fanta sipping willfully ignorant pieces of shit.
Solid Boys reference
Never seen it, but given what I know about the show, hell yeah.
i wouldnt be using twitter but if i want to see don trump jr say that tim walz drinks horse cum, i need to be using twitter with an account unfortunately.
Read that sentence again and rethink your choices.
i would like to be able to do that, but unfortunately i’m not a republican so these things don’t have an insignificant effect on my life.
I guess I don’t get the joke here.
idk apparently people think i’m joking. Personally i prefer to know what the political parties are getting up to on the internet, and elon musk the cunt himself thinks i shouldnt be able to without an account so thats cool.
The choice of headline you went with made the whole thing read like an inside out sarcasm.
