The last 72 hours and the value of Twitter.

[WarGamer]

I know some of you don't like Musk... OK.

But we LITERALLY... and in REAL TIME watched a rebellion materialize.

I watched Wagner trucks being attacked on the M4 minutes after it happened...

I watched Prigozhin meeting with Russian leaders in Rostov... minutes after it happened.

Twitter is HOURS ahead of the networks.

Hate Musk, love the app.

5. Agreed, and in some cases, days ahead of the news

Assuming they even talk abut the issues in between their outrage stories

9. I think that is valid ... to a certain extent.

It is certainly a powerful tool.

However ... I don't think Musk has made it a better one - in any conceivable way - since he took over control. And a certain amount of argument that it has been degraded. All without offering appreciably more benefit, or 'tool.'

11. Agreed

The platform existed before Musk began to muddle with it. Too many of his changes, or proposed changes, have been about bringing attention to himself, not improving the user experience,

10. I guess it was something.

I guess we should sytike now.

12. No thanks.
