I don’t get all complaining about Twitter moving to a subscription model. Assume it’s mostly Elon bad, so new thing Elon does is bad. The product will improve if the default experience is you only see subscribers.

There’s a lot of academic research analyzing the fall of social networks that suggests this isn’t the case. Forcing a subscription means that the most valuable members of the network will likely leave and create a network effect that leads to more people leaving.

Money is a moot point if you burn through a decade’s worth of accumulated goodwill in a year.
