I read that thread yesterday. I was cold and needed a good dumpster fire to warm up next to. It didn't disappoint.

Well, not the far-right nutcases, they see something different… (Example, tweet and replies)
Elon Musk said that Apple wants to ban Twitter so that’s the truth. If Apple were to say something contrary they would be accused of lying. Can’t win with those people.

Exactly, you won't placate these people so there's no point. Best way to handle a troll is to ignore them and look at how it has Musk foaming at the mouth, he's his own worst enemy.

He hears the silence howling
Catches angels as they fall
And the all time winner
Has got him by the balls
He thanks god he stole the handle
And the train, it won't stop going, no way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
Catches angels as they fall
And the all time winner
Has got him by the balls
He thanks god he stole the handle
And the train, it won't stop going, no way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down

recently Musk has become quite vocal in supporting DeSantis for president, so this isn't surprising

It just amuses me that these goons don’t understand that if you COMPEL speech, that’s also a violation of freedom of speech.
I bet some of them know and just don’t care. You can draw your own conclusions as to which is worse.

Just speculating here, but aren’t the days of becoming App Store rich long dead? Not because of Apple’s cut but because of over saturation. The games alone are highly redundant and I’m pretty good with the 35 photo editing apps I already have.

Yep. I made a lot of money in the first few years of the App Store, then it fell off fast.

Elon Musk is delaying Twitter’s paid verification to avoid Apple’s 30 percent cut
And the price is going up by a penny, to $8 even

This article is confusing - I don’t see how ”delaying” twitter blue solves Musk’s problem. On the other hand, if the point is that you won’t be able to purchase twitter blue in-app, good luck with that. I’m sure lots of people want to give their credit card information to the company that lost data on 5 million accounts and which laid off so many of their security and data privacy people.

Why wait? 70% of $8 is quite a lot more than 100% of nothing, but what do I know, I‘ve never spent $44 billion on anything.Elon Musk is delaying Twitter’s paid verification to avoid Apple’s 30 percent cut
