He’s that bad at business. On Twitter, Musk has no workers to contain his bullshit or create a good public image for him. Nor does he have enough workers to keep Twitter running smoothly as it used to.

At first, I registered on Lemmy.world but, after a while, it was unbearable. Sometimes I couldn’t log in because the servers were overloaded, sometimes because they were updating. When they decided to defederate certain instances, I went to eslemmy…until it disappeared without warning. I had the same luck with firefish.social. I signed up to try it out, it looked promising, but it was very slow. Now it’s dead too.

For me, Lemmy was not yet ready for the amount of users coming from Reddit.

When you register, Twitter/X asks you to follow a popular account. He is one of then. The problem is that maybe those accounts are used once to see Twitter content and then forgotten. They could be used to login in a different website. I don’t doubt that he has many bots following him, but inactive bots are useless.

I think Facebook and Instagram users had no need to use Twitter anyway, so its alternative doesn’t fill any need.

I don’t care about ads on Reddit. They aren’t intrusive, although I don’t like fake “organic content”. I think the worst thing is seeing the same thing over and over again in the same sub, being reposted by bots. It’s OK if it’s from time to time, but they don’t even try to change the title.

I thought he was moderator of a 1000 subscriber sub, not moderator of 1000 subs. That’s a different story.
