@chris huh, the three month thing is stupid. Just ask Valve why they disabled the ability to get CSGO prime by playing. Creating csgo bots to farm xp and get the paid access for free is way easier than just creating accounts and waiting three months. This won't do anything
X drops the "Trust" from their "Trust & Safety" team.
Now it's just "Safety", which is a two point score in football when the offensive team is tackled, loses possession of the ball, or commits a foul in their own end zone. 🏈
@dannotdaniel What makes them think their handle on Xitter is safe, even WITH a presence? Elon doesn’t follow rules of engagement. Has everyone developed amnesia or something? Do we not remember the return of DEAD PEOPLE to Twitter?
I had a Twitter list "standard stuff" where I listed the core accounts I definitely wanted to hear about. This fav list grew over the years and had 120 users in total. These were active users that in the golden era posted every day. These were the ones I wanted to read whenever possible.
I wanted to see what's the status today so I went through every account and here's the result. By "inactive" I mean users who haven't posted anything in two months or more.
20% have completely deleted their account (the list now has 95 users)
36% still post frequently
64% are inactive or quit using Twitter
30% are inactive without any reason given
23% of those who still post on X also have active Mastodon, Bluesky or Threads accounts
@rolle I’ve noticed a huge change in Twitter. Interaction with others has gone down. My favourite users have left and others don’t post like they used to.
@rolle I deleted my Twitter account and moved to Mastodon. I have made accounts on Thread and Bluesky, but they only have a post pointing to my Mastodon account. I really enjoy spelunking in the streams, finding new people to follow in a slow and "organic" way, instead of being algorithm-fed!
