As I understand it, it’s not Twitter, but on TV. It’s a new service that is supposed to rival YouTube. As much as I would like to see that happen, fuck Elon. I hope it fails and costs him billions.
I hope it succeeds just enough to take the right wing nutters off YouTube and give YouTube an incentive to improve its service. But that it stays unsuccessful enough that it keeps burning a hole in Elon’s pocket
As much as that sounds like fun, the right with their own platform end up in an right wing, conservative, , fake news sound board where people will be subject to propaganda and nothing but propaganda, completely radicalizing anyone on there, instead of confronting them with an alternative sides of the stories. Isolating the nut jobs makes them even more dangerous. Which is exactly what Elon tries to do.
While this is true, algorithmic feeds virtually guarantee that echo chambers exist within a platform already. Fascists won’t leave YouTube because they feel it’s “too woke” or offering varying viewpoints, they’ll leave because the people they already watch there tell them to go to the other service. So I think it’s possible Elon attracts the fascists, destroys YouTube’s ability to monetize that part of their algorithm, and consequently have to improve service for others to try and ensure other fringe echo chambers don’t follow suit.

I grabbed it because that’s what I do and have always done.
It’s Twitter on tv.
tl;dr - Twitter vids on tv.
