Eric A. MeyerTwitter learned, and Reddit is fast learning, that people are not addicted to the platform, they’re addicted to the community they found there. Ruin the community, and people will leave the platform. It really is that simple.

@christianselig I hope something big comes to take Reddit's place. I'm feeling so lost without the communities I found there.
@Meyerweb This is so well put. This is exactly why I left Reddit because after struggling to find a safe community it's now becoming unsafe.

Matt BinderI am once again locked out of Twitter.
Twitter just locked my account after I asked Twitter's head of Trust & Safety Ella Irwin why I haven't been informed of what tweet broke Twitter's policies
Seems they forgot to force me to delete the tweet the first time, like they did the other suspended journalists.
This is the tweet they want me to delete to get back into my account:
Dan GillmorI don't think journalists (in general) -- and certainly not the organizations they work for -- fully understand the threat Musk represents to the future of free expression and journalism itself.
Begging him to reinstate the banned accounts is pure folly. It is bended-knee supplication to a sociopath who now controls a powerful media company. But the power of his company depends in no small degree on keeping journalists there.
Leave. Now.
Casey NewtonI think it's cool how Twitter falling apart has revealed some of the coolest bugs I have ever heard of https://twitter.com/kurtwagner8/status/1603829406073380864?s=61&t=mNqLnByWtZ1qb_YWcA644w

“Happy Friday! We were planning a Twitter Space today to discuss all things Elon-Twitter. But Spaces isn’t working for those of us who joined @katienotopoulos’s space last night where Elon showed up. (Oddly it *is* working for those who didn’t attend) We’ll try again next week!”
@stux Holy crap are you serious? He's going to dismantle Twitter feature by feature isn't he?
