Just gonna leave this little gem here, enjoy.
How the fuck is Reddit closing their API behind a ridiculous paywall only the SECOND stupidest social media move of the day
The day is not over yet
Boy I sure picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue
Well I picked the wrong day to quit amphetamines!
I for one am cheering its demise.
I don’t even use Twitter anymore, but after this, I went there just to delete my two accounts.
He is so unbelievably dumb?? 😅
Limit rating your core audience in their primary task is completely batshit crazy. Thank fuck for mastodon.
You know things are going well when you have to restrict content consumption on your content platform.
Limit READIND is something new. What a creative move!
wow, this is actually amazing.
You’d think a rapidly developing service like Lemmy might face restrictions like that due to resources but Twitter? Mismanagement beyond belief.
Wow that’s my Twitter and Reddit account deleted within 24 hours
By post he means tweet, right? Google says average tweet length is only around 30 characters and average word length around 5 characters. So let’s say it’s 8 words with abbreviation which would take 2 seconds to read. If it’s 4 seconds per tweet with scrolling then you can now only spend under an hour on Twitter without paying. Good on him for fighting against social media addiction I guess.
I got rate limited in 25 minutes by refreshing my Following feed and reading about people getting rate limited. I don’t think it counts 600 unique tweets since I definitely reloaded the same tweets multiple times.
So unless you pay Elon Musk $8/month, you can only load 600 tweets per day. That’s some fucked up shit right there man.
Please please please let this be the breaking point at which big online personalities switch to mastodon, or at least start using those crossposting tools. That’s the only thing I miss from twitter and something RSS cant replace
Everyone always saying “rip Twitter” but y’all never leave, so…
I know, somehow people aren’t leaving despite Elon’s best efforts.
Talk about killing the goose that laid golden eggs…
