My timeline is now almost exclusively blue check marks. I can trust no one now.

I saw celebratory tweets from two different Laura Kelly accounts yesterday and I was suspicious. I figured she has a personal account and a government account but I couldn't be sure!

i downloaded Mastodon then immediately deleted it

This tracks with the experiences of everyone I know who has downloaded Mastodon, in addition to the fact that it is currently dominated by Brits.

Also, I don't understand what their revenue model even is?

If you click on the check it tells you why they have the check. If it says they subscribed to Twitter Blue, the check is worthless.

I honestly like Elon’s answer more than the stupid corporate speak question. Only thing missing was “synergy.”

I really don’t want to cancel Twitter. My hope is still that advertisers don’t see it as worthwhile, it tanks, and Elon sells it back to the same folks for less than $1 billion (after declaring victory from owning the libs).

I hope Elon sells it to Kanye.
