Very pathetic Elon. It will not make any sense to the man who build an empire on YouTube to post videos on Twitter or any other social media. It's not about the money, it's about braniding. Mr Beast is a Youtube icon. And it would not be a suprise I'd they have some contracts with YouTube.

If Elon wants to compete he needs to focus on new talents who use Twitter as their main and only plataform, similar to what Twitch does. Probably he should give Vines a second chance. I think it was Twitter error to close it. Now shorts and streaming are on demand.

Trying to steal other platforms talents is just nonsense.

I despise Disney but I think this is just a simple corporate copyright law problem. Disney is not gonna give explicit permission to use any of their brands, for anything that is not under a contract. But I don't think they will go after them if they use it.

I think it is very well explained. You don't need to go to other instance to follow them.

They are just merging with another community for convenience.

I don't get why are you so upset. It's not a big deal.

Also, you can create your own community in any instance you want.

I like to post to my WordPress blog from my desktop, so I use Open Live Writer. It's allow me the option to write without being connected to the Internet. I doubt it still in development.

I think their strategy is not gonna work. Meta is universally hated by everyone using the Fediverde now. The majority of Mastodon / Lemmy users are here looking for alternatives.

Also, I dont think Facebook and Instagram users are looking for a Twitter alternative.

Also, Meta is good buying stuff (Instagram, WhatsApp) but they have a history of trying new apps that are never successful.

I predict Meta Threads will close in a couple of months.

I was using Bacon Reader for Android for the last 10 years. For me it was the only way of using Reddit. I'm now checking Lemmy. I hope we can build a vibrant community here. I'm not coming back to Reddit.
