With the Twitter limits today, I think we are already seeing the fallout begin.

It took me 3 minutes of slow loading to get this and this.

It's been over half an hour now and I still have a blank twitter page, what if today is the day twitter actually goes down.

Having never used Twitter because even at its inception I thought it was a dumb idea, watching it collapse is quality entertainment.

I used it a bit. It was pretty great for things like following a podcaster you liked.

Musk has made it super toxic. Most of the people that I’d follow have left or cut their posting down to zero.
