I miss the old Twitter when I saw the stupid X animation.

Twitter X is Elon Musk’s world. Pretty soon he’ll have so much control over his platform that he can practically cron kings and manipulate outcomes to fit his personal political agenda. And don’t even get me started on his whole stupid “X the everything app bullshit.

The only everything app that has succeeded so far is WeChat in China. But it’s apparently a surveillance app for the masses by the government. Seriously, why the hell would I want to link my social media account with my bank account and even my government ID? What’s the benefit in that?

I’d rather keep the digital me disconnected to the real me.

        Cryptographers probably would know that and would have spoken up. Because it’s open source. But sure, shill for closed source and talk shit about the reverse.
