I mean why would you wanna do that? just wwhy?
Elon wants to be the only dim one in the room
Well, that’s easy, he can just walk into literally any room.
He really dimmed any room he walked in.
Maintaining existing CSS is hard. Luckily, usurping all of social media as an “everything app” will be trivial by comparison.
Step 1: Fire 80% of your programmers
Step 2: Promise new features including getting into banking and ecommerce and literally doing “everything”
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit(?)
Seems like step 3 might involve stopping doing even the basics of keeping your existing client base happy.
In step 3 is “lose 50% of your advertisers” and “completely destroy a well known brand that’s made its way into common nomenclature” among others
Elon has clearly shown that I can trust him with my finances. I am excited to turn all my personal data and money over to his excellently designed software and highly ethical company. What could go wrong?
Step 3 is using chatGTP to break… I mean to build your site
I can’t imagine wanting to use Twitter for anything critical after Elon axed the security and compliance teams. Like finance. You’re basically asking for your identity to be stolen.
Don’t they use tailwindcss at twitter? Must be easier to remove dim mode
Anyone actually cares at this point?
Nope. Quit the bird site when he went full asshat. Barely used the bird site before but it was helpful for breaking news in the olden days. Other than potential A11Y legal action if it fails for contrast issues, I don’t think anyone should care about this stupid site now. The tech community has moved on.
Who doesn’t like going to see a circus?
I’m guessing that no one here does. If you’re on Lemmy, you’re probably also using Mastodon instead of Twitter.
I wish people were far more willing to just move on when the winds were changing, instead of sticking out for… god knows what reason
You clearly haven’t tasted the bottom of billionaire shoes.
yeah, but the Twitter migration problem is “everyone i follow is here and not there so why would i leave?” It’s not like lemmy or Reddit where the individual disappears behind the content
I don’t get why I’m supposed to leave twitter all of a sudden. Because people on Lemmy don’t like it?
You’re supposed to leave because you don’t want to support a narcissistic fuckboy. You should actively try to avoid giving dragons more gold because all they do is burn villages to the ground.
So the answer is yes?
I don’t really care but I find it interesting. Just how quickly he is destroying one of the worlds most recognizable companies.
Stop posting and upvoting musk spam.
Better yet, Lemmy should get the much asked for ability to filter out keywords from our feeds. Musk, Twitter and reddit would be blocked immediately. I’m so sick of them.
Elon: “I’m going to delete this thing.”
Everyone else: “NO! Why would you do that kind of thing?”
Elon: “O-o-okay! B-b-but I’m going to delete something today! That other thing, then!”
(Elon continues to read the hypothetical The Best Of Dilbert’s Pointy-Haired Boss book and gets so many ideas, folks)
I thought changes were going to be voted on.
Elon voted, I bet
That gimmick lasted all of a day or two until Elon decided democracy was cringe when Twitter voted to oust him.
Twitter’s going save money by hosting their website on Geocities. The new plan only comes with 250mb of storage and that dancing baby gif is like 3mb easy. Gotta clean up somewhere.
Imo so he can bring it back as part of the paid features, the dude is looking for ways to make money in literally everything
And he’s so shit at it, especially on Twitter. Let’s not forget about the dumb idiot going full fash and chasing a significant amount of advertisers away, I’m sure that helps his financial situation a lot.
You mean pay for a CSS re-skin? To enable light mode??
Yes, that seems to be the plan.
I mean, he kinda wants to make 40 billion dollars back… he ought to try to nickel and dime every single user
I literally don’t care
“A lot of people”
Translation: “no one, it was me”
“many people are saying…”
No, not just Elon, I bet he has bots too
He doesn’t like competition, especially at being fucking dim.
Sniffing that glue again.
*spits out water WHAT THE FUCK
He should get that addiction to chewing wires sorted out
He just needs to chew on bigger, thicker wires. The kinds with beefier plugs on the end of them.
Fuck twitter and fuck big tech
