Except that the FoS clause doesn't apply hereThis is a great thing for free speech!
This is probably the adult way to look at this. Even if someone doesn’t like the owner, it’s the platform that matters. Let’s see what happens.As a user since 2008, I plan to remain for now and see how it goes...
..but I'm highly skeptical based upon Elon's often childish and petty conduct over the years.
The proof will be in the pudding
And I encourage everyone to use Truth Social.
I did a while back, just before Trump got booted, and I only rarely regret my decision.Whelp, guess it's time to ditch that platform.
What PR? He has none, nor advertising.Speaks volumes about his well oiled PR machine
Open source algorithms will improve third party apps too like Tweetbot. Excited about that.His stated goals are:
- Less content moderation
- Better spambot detection
- Open source timeline algorithm
- Edit button (which Twitter was working on anyway)
Every site, even those that claim they won't in the name of free speech, will ban and censor people for violating their terms of use.Great…. A significant blow to censoring is being dealt
Layoff all the woke people and move the headquarters to Texas
Truth Social has been deleting accounts who do not agree with their views and are much worse at it so far in their wee hours of existence than the big bad bear Twitter conservatives are so scared of.And I encourage everyone to use Truth Social.
To me there are two issues:
1. Harassment: Plainly unacceptable, period.
2. Hypocricy: No matter your political opinions, you have to at at least agree that its mostly conservatives being banned from Twitter while we still have Putin, radical fundementalists and continuing to use the platform.
I think Elon can address the later while not impacting the former.
Go make your own platformTruth Social has been deleting accounts who do not agree with their views and are much worse at it so far in their wee hours of existence than the big bad bear Twitter conservatives are so scared of.
Citation needed.Just a reminder that less content moderation ≠ more free speech.
You talking to me or Elon lol?Go make your own platform
I’m sorry, did you say something about the NYC subway shooting?That's what happens when most of the blatant bigotry toward minorities and incessant trolling come from the right.
It's a barren wasteland.And I encourage everyone to use Truth Social.
How does the political comment rule work on MR? Or is it just when the speech goes a specific way that it's allowed. Asking for a friend.Just a reminder that less content moderation ≠ more free speech.
I don’t think people realise but you can have free speech and limits on harassment and hate speech. There’s are two distinct things.
