damn they rly did drive away the best users back to twitter didn’t they …. What a shame

man im just seeing nothing interesting over here rn and even the new team member so desperate (is the vibe it gives) to spotlight even its most notorious bad actors… maybe its just quiet but like damn. feels to me like all the stuff that was coolest with the possibilities on this platform were identified by builders like deployer with ham and all but they were never friendly to it - so much so that these builders literally figured out how to do all the cool things elsewhere (e.g. bankrbot). i imagine things could have gone a lot differently but frankly im yet again disappointed by leadership nit having the wits to just embrace the fun stuff that actually could keep good users interested here… maybe im just being grouchy but like man the vibe of having fumbled it feels heavy ….

I’ve tried to hold out hope but like wtf it’s wild how bad they are at retaining good content - and it feels like every move is more tone deaf than the last tbh

What’s missing, in your opinion? Genuine question, from someone who never really used X/twitter for much more than lurking.
