As a result of Senator Menendez saying “I am not going anywhere,” Rep. Andy Kim declares: “I feel compelled to run against him. Not something I expected to do, but NJ deserves better.”

This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself.

The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying.

In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right.

The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in.

This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS.

Unbelievable. It's amateur hour.

@sp @mtsw yup, I am still checking in on Swarm (mostly so I remember where I've been when I travel) (and of course to capture the mayorship of places I like)

Platformer is reporting Twitter is about to remove two factor with for everyone, unless they pay Elon $8/11 a month.

Beyond crazy on a service that rife with fraud to make basic infosec a luxury. 🤡💩

the thing that might get me to perma leave twitter was announced today, pay for twitter blue or you don't get two factor authorization

one of the worst people on the planet in charge of the most important (imo obviously) social network. what a timeline

@mgerrydoyle fwiw I don't think I've seen a single sports journalist I follow post a mastodon handle

(not the point you are making I think, just found it interesting) (though it does support the idea that sports chat is not happening here)

@warren__terra lol thanks, I am as new as you are

but it seems there is not a content-pushing algorithm here. not that I want one, I always had my twitter feed set to chronological.

@warren__terra do you know, is my feed automatically chronological here? I don't see a setting for it
