Answering honestly: so that shitty people can like shitty things without the consequences. They can broadcast their views without having to answer for them, and down the line it's easier to manipulate likes so Elon can sell likes or remove likes from anything he pleases, which allows twitter to create "public opinion" that won't be in line with actual public opinion.
Elon mad he got ratiod recently or something?
Am I the only one that thought this was a picture of Kim Jong Un?
The funny thing is, it's not actually hidden if you know how to see them. Just throw "/likes" after a profile. They only hid the fucking button.
This doesn’t work for me
They may actually have fixed it now. Worked all day yesterday for me but it just redirects to the profile URL now for me too.
How about "X is about to start sending everyone to Mastodon".
YouTube is totally gonna copy this.
I’d be ok with just “X is about to start hiding.”
Xwitter has become a master class in autocracy, how one guy with power and a fragile ego can bring an entire empire to ruin.
Here in the states with Project 2025 burning bright in the future promised by the Republican Party, we should be watching this closely.
Ruin, yet sooooooo many people are still using it.
Seems to be working out for him. He's able to control what people are allowed to see and say, which is the main thing he wanted.
Dude is also about to get $56B richer, there is no chance of it failing financially at this point as long as he's still able to have this much influence with it.
They just don't want the world to see how little people like them now
I think the count still shows, just not named. Musk think people are afraid to like the stuff he likes (far right BS)
Wow! I just use an alt for my shit posting and likes. Guess my raciest uncle hasn’t figured that out yet thankfully.
This platform is dying a slow slow death. Really wish more people where on Mastodon
Please tell me you meant racist and not raciest
That would be impossible, for I am the raciest uncle!
Edit: And before my inbox fills up, I'm only into Weird Aunts with a balanced cat/tattoo ratio.
what's your take on weird aunts with tattoos of cats?
That's an instant X2 score modifier right there.
Nobody cares anymore.
They should also remove the letters T, W, I, E, and R just so no trace of Twitter remains.
Would be funny if they find and replace Twitter with X everywhere
I think tried. And fucked up lot of stuff.
They did. See "netflitwitter".
it would have been so much cheaper to just start the xchan imageboard from scratch instead taking 4 years turning twitter into it
First they came for the ratios, but I did not speak up because I was not cringe
- First they came for the checkmarks, but I did not speak up because I was not famous.
Then they came for the api, but I did not speak because I was no researcher.
