I used to use Twitter to follow celebs when they dropped performance dates. Now I don’t follow anyone anymore.
Songkick is an app I use to help me track that. You can either put in a city and it’ll tell you who is coming and when. Or you can tell it what artists to track and it will tell you the tour dates, if any. It also tracks comedians.
Ohhhhh, thanks man.
Didn’t Reddit do exactly this? Isn’t that why I’m here?
There are dozens of us!
Dozens!
Oh no. Elon musk don’t ruin Twitter … Oooohh nooo someone stop him from ruining that awful platform…
Someone please stop him.
🤣
Who uses Twitter?
I used to use it solely for sports news updates. Once Elon bought it, kept constantly getting politics news that I didn’t want. Kept adding blocked terms hoping to not see it anymore. Nope. Kept getting pushed right wing bullshit. Deleted and never looked back. It helps that people have actually moved to Bluesky. The biggest issue I have is with Reddit and Lemmy not having the sports communities here. Game threads for Orioles games had 0 comments. I’m not going to just sit there and post to myself.
It’s a weird decision to further monetize access to a platform that’s hemorrhaging users and engagement.
It’s weird to you cause you’re not a mega-brain CEO… if revenue drops, you raise the prices, obviously.
i mean hemorrhaging users and engagement is why they’re trying to monetize whatever they can
You don’t get it. Because there’s less and less they need to squeeze them even further!

do third party twitter developers even exist anymore?
I assume all the bot farms are paying for the privilege.
And next week he’ll xeet about suing the developers who leave even though it makes no sense.
Xitter has served its purpose. After the election he’ll probably ditch it.
