    I am no branding expert but Twitter X would have been smart.

    Tie into his other company. And like how google created Alphabet, create X Corporation.

    You have have TwitterX"insertnoun/verb" i.e. TwitterXPay or TwitterXMusic...

    While I still think Musk is a marketing genius… he’s stupid in most other areas.

    Child exploitation and diddling only matter when it’s public school or liberals.

    Oh ****, makes sense the fediverse will be rife with that stuff when Twitter was already getting flak for not doing better with child p*rnography.

    This is like backpage for black market deals all over again.

    OTOH, I guess you can consider them honeypots once they're found.

    You think threads is allowing child p*rn accounts because he likes their memes ? You've lost your mind



    You're sick seriously

    Threads doesn't have child p*rn (per your statement, not mine) because nobody is using it.

    Elon literally admitted that this account had posted child p*rn before and that's why he got suspended and he reinstated the account. These are his words not my.

    I just find it funny how you and @AroundTheWorld worship this guy and claimed he was a guru who would turn twitter around. I just love laughing at your wrong predictions over nd over

    Brotado, you have an obsession with this man. I made a simple comment about another platform and you keep bringing up Musk. How did this man hurt you?

    Threads has a strong active user base and I wouldn't underestimate Meta in building it out, but I don't expect it to be the the main Twitter like platform.

    Instead, I think that Spill will actually take over and beat out both Threads and Twitter ultimately. They are doing it right.
