How do people still even use twitter (or “X”)

[Former Shortcel]

It was already on its clear downfall in early 2022 with the rise of NFTs, but the elon musk purchase truly finished it off

The same old tweets going viral, with the same verified accounts circlejerking each other to get that money

Filled to the brim with these dogshit accounts, where the replies under any tweet are practically unusable, and the feed is full of a majority bullshit. And this isnt even taking into account how many bots there are

How was this app ever useable, let alone good?

im still mad they changed the name to X

im still mad they changed the name to X

I refuse to ever call it that, both because its a dogshit name change and also because it reminds me that the app is now ran by a retard who thinks hes real life iron man

I usually try to ignore political stuff on twitter but it still finds its way onto my feed

genuinely unbearable to scroll on this app for more than 10 minutes, every single post is a ragebait for engagement or soulless slop. There isn't a SINGULAR genuine post on the entire site in the past 5 years, i'd much even go as low as scroll through tiktok slop than go on X

Mines just a constant cycle at the moment of nick fuentes, clavicular, arguments about ai, arguments about ICE, and other political slop

My feed used to actually be good at one point

 

[Sandriguez]

it’s like the reddit echo chamber but worse because the communities aren’t an integral part of the website. so without subreddits to split it up it’s literally a vacuum.

Its just the same two sides constantly batting it out on twitter and circlejerking, genuinely hell to even try and keep up with current news on twitter

was already a problem before elon but fuuuuuuck he made it worse

Sucks that he privated likes that shit was genuinely the easiest way to win an argument against some old fart before the update

Instagram is actually still pretty good but they're starting to get really deceptive with this new ad format where it basically hides that it's an ad for a second so you don't scroll away immediately

And the promoted posts in your home feed are getting out of hand

But these are both new so we'll see how things go

It's starting to reach that point where its value is dipping into the negative

Pinterest is another site that's walking a very fine line

I noticed i get way more promoted videos when scrolling on reels unlike before

I guess thats the only benefit of elon privating twitter likes besides digital footprint. The gooners can now like whatever they wish in peace without others seeing

Yeah it's like idk what the end game is with these companies, there only so much advertising that makes sense for a platform before it's completely saturated and the experience becomes unusable. Though I guess they don't really care if the platforms get ruined because they're just tryna kill them for everything they can. Frankly I kinda hope they do kill them off at this point. Like what's happening with Windows and Discord, it'd be better for everyone if people started looking for alternatives and these huge companies had some competition.

 

[TylerMaher]

Don't care about any of that I just use it for the porn

Ive stopped watching porn, but yeah i used to as well

Honestly with the slop these social medias have become, seeing their downfall wouldnt be too bad
