How is making Twitter pay to win a safeguard? This will just suppress conservative speech more as those on the left block and mute more, and those on the right will be on more block lists and get less reach.

This is reddit tier groupthink bullshit. The link was talking about paying? Not as far as I could see anyhow. Elon Musk @elonmusk 1h Twitter will start incorporating mute & block signals from Blue Verified (not Legacy Blue) as downvotes Replying to @elonmusk To be clear, all user actions will factor into a NN model for a tweet and the account tweeting, including positive actions. As user accounts develop credibility, their actions will have greater weight, similar to how @CommunityNotes works.

Reddit is censored, controlled and biased with algorithms and bias accounts as google, youtube and facebook. Look in to /u/maxwellhill on reddit, it was Ghislaine Maxwells account.

Why are you so obssessed with bots anyway? Makes no sense, especially since you Q and Trump followers were getting called bots for years. Who gets to decide what a bot is and how do they determine it? I know you don't say much that threatens the status quo, but do you like being abused or something? Wake up, bro.

Not obsessed with bots but bots are used to shape the narrative just as much as censorship is. More fake accounts promoting the same bollocks (some of them semi manned if bot flags an intervention needed such as verification or something it is not able to parse etc) if this person thinks this and is heavily upvoted people are more likely to follow the upvoted crowd, its basic human psychology - I seem to rattle your status quo of not understanding the over labelling of groups who are ultimately the same group owned by the larger umbrella above. Not sure Q folks were called bots, they do seemingly get called a lot of names though. Would the bots not be best described as the mainstream? Some people call them npc's 1 minute ago, EnigmaticWorld said: Exactly. always ways to game the system in place, I am sure that will be factored in, pretty basic thinking there. The idea at the moment is rooting out the bots and tracking where they are located, I am sure China will be involved, I am sure most countries with some coin will be involved also. Root them out, block IP ranges, continue looking for others that crop up. No idea is perfect, certainly not when it comes to technology.

Dont know what to expect, just watching things unfold as I see them occur. I could be wrong elon could be satan himself, I guess we will all find out.

Twitter has been better since he took over, but that update to the algorithms seems dodgy. People are just fortunate that it won't limit a users reach to you if you follow them personally. That doesn't really promote good dialogue between different groups though, you'll just see a bunch of centrist or left-wing content in the trends.
