people seem to be in a big need of something different than Twitter.
and also the FB/Instagram users are likely not to hesitate to join one more Meta app that preys on their privacy.
I really wonder how they managed to make the Twitter experience so bad. Musk took a working platform and made tons of weird choices. Now you can't even read Tweets without having an account.
It's because Musk sniffs his own farts and has bullshitted his way into more and more money his entire life. He wanted to morph Twitter into the platform he wanted, but also tried to make it net a profit, by 1) fucking over people/companies to whom he owed money, and 2) trying to squeeze money out of users who had used the platform for free for over a decade.
He's one of those asshole kids who start bum fights, but he's trying to get the bums to pay him for participating and he's not paying out to the bettors who won.
