Maybe destroying it was the point, wasn't he financed by people who would have an interest in suppression of free opinion sharing?
Yep. From the start. His goal is to make twitter suck more and more.
@stopthatgirl7 While it sounds funny, until you realize, its also scary how rich people can just purchase and destroy any platform.
They can't exactly buy lemmy or mastadon, since it's hosted by the community...
@i_failed_turing_test The kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon projects could be purchased, the maintainer payed to work for the companies, the community hosted servers can still be buyed out. I know this is not likely to happen. But saying it's not possible is not correct. Money is a hell of a drug.
The nature of it being an open platform is if they buy out the maintainer of kbin/Lemmy, anyone with the skill can fork the projects and keep it running open source. Individual instances can be bought out and killed, but the base platform is effectively unlikable in the way Twitter is being killed.
Well, that didn't take long, the @x handle is now an official X-Twitter account!
