I’ve been on Twitter for 16 years now. I’m not a fan of Elon, but I have to admit my experience on the platform is better than it has been in years.
For example, muted terms stay muted and the “For you” TL is actually relevant. I think these gains are structural improvements gained by slimming down and removing advertiser-driven garbage.
Seems pretty good for a first step but the core problems moderation and curation remain. I’m not sure I see a good path forward on these points given the current posture of the company. That’s probably why exodus events like this one will continue to build over time.
