That’s like a cigarette brand marketing themselves as the most cancer-causing.

DOGE Plan […] is Wildly Dangerous

FTFY

Guess the Magic Mouse design team was getting bored

I feel like they don’t even need to be crypto schemes affiliated with Musk for that Venn diagram to work

This all feels very Streisand Effect. I don’t care about these accounts, but the more attempts there are to suppress them… the more they feel important.

EDIT: The article has been updated and it was described as a “packaging bug” and not an intended change.

How many times do I need to pack up and move to the next “best option”

Mine changed back to 8MB from 25MB a few weeks ago and it really does cut the amount of stuff you can send without having to run them through compression or just host externally.

I’d love to know the returns any of these companies are getting on advertising there… it was already pretty bleak before the takeover.

Every company is trying for the most unqualified workforce these days… but at least most of them don’t involve flight.

Trying to make a flagship product and keep it pumped up through subscription sounds a lot like live service games.

And those all fucking suck.

I thought Elon would just tell everyone to drill in some hood pins.

But I guess trying to do it through software(…?) is even cheaper.

Every time I click a Reddit link now it’s just “download the app to verify your age” regardless of what it is

Maybe the reason Elon broke every part of Twitter was just so he has plausible deniability while he meddles with everything and desperately tries to get his name in every discussion.

I still don’t understand how the buzzword of AI 10x’d all these valuations, when it’s always either: a) exactly what they’ve been doing before, now with a fancy new name b) deliberately shoehorning AI in, in ways with no practical benefit

That’s crazy they had above 50%, though I guess they were the only EV-only company in North America (I believe?).

The majority of the ads I get on Twitter now are deepfaked Elon shilling coins — I don’t know how any advertiser (or user) could have any faith in that platform anymore.

I will say, I don’t know what they’ve done but it’s been fucking up my casual circumvention nicely. Now I just get forced into almost 10 minutes of ads every time, and the ad bars shows up underneath videos, the end cards at the wrong time…

Please do. Keep making headlines for self-destruction.

I feel like we’re at the age of the internet where a strong minority (see: Lemmy users) care deeply about all the ugly exploitative and anti-consumer nature of big tech, but the vast majority of the population just… doesn’t care… and shrugs off (and enables) the continual downward spiral.

If this is anything like the flag to bring back the old Chrome downloads bar (I miss you), then enjoy it while you can.
