PSA to people still posting on Twitter: Twitter no longer shows replies or threads to non-logged-in users - just the individual tweets you link to. It also doesn't show profiles with all your recent tweets. I'm not sure this is widely known, especially for those in charge of brands etc. It really cuts down on the usefulness of Twitter IMO.
How often do brands find fascism useful?
Twitter is an anti-democracy advocacy platform now, run by a man who believes "democracy is obsolete".
Any brand still advertising on Twitter is financially supporting an anti-democracy movement.
@Npars01 I mean I don't disagree but I think you'll find it just takes a lot of momentum to shift them elsewhere. Also the questions they're asking is where would they go? Mastodon isn't very welcoming to brands. Threads maybe but it's dead, apparently. So they stick with the devil they know. It's not an easy move to make.
@Npars01 So it's not about whether "fascism is useful" - that doesn't even really cross their minds. It's about "where can we keep doing the thing that helped us sell stuff" and there isn't a good place for that yet. I'm not saying this is a good excuse but it's an explanation of why & I kinda get it. Hence my post, which shows that Twitter isn't even good at the thing they think it's good for. That's how to get them to move somewhere else (but still, where?)
