It's official. He killed Twitter.
"Musk has gotten rid of three-fourths of Twitter’s staff, thrown out past rules against organized disinformation campaigns, and personally engaged with accounts previously suspended for hate speech."
And now, the logo is disappearing, the brand is changing to "X".
Testament to how just one ego-ridden billionaire can destroy so quickly.

Oh man. You hate to love to see it... 😂
Now they're just phoning it in. #Twitter #TwitterDeathWatch
The owner of twitter has made it increasingly evident that he'd like it to be an expensive version of Gab, so I'm going to pay as much attention to it as I do Gab.

I went to do a test tweet to see whether Musk had set the usage limit ridiculously low or whether it was just throwing that error for everybody...
And it failed for reasons that may be that, or may be something else so. Like. Yeah. #Twitter #TwitterDeathWatch
Holy shit #Technoking literally said the dreaded phrase “works for me” in response to reports of his $44 billion platform breaking apart. 😂
Thank god he’s there to manage things instead of the 7,000 people he had doing it before. And don’t worry everyone, when he steps down as CEO he will still “run the software and servers teams.”
found it #twitterdeathwatch but I can't make heads or tails of the charts. https://deadbird.singlepane.io/d/Z_aqE2d4z/twitter-death-watch-basic-overview?orgId=4&from=now-3h&to=now&search=open&query=folder:current

(not seeing much weird patterns currently) @fack
Has #twitter's infinite scrolling broken for anyone else? I load my feed and start scrolling down and only see a half dozen tweets before I start scrolling through blank space. #twitterDeathWatch
Seriously imagine working here. From the BBC.
An unprecedented increase in hate speech, never before seen on a mainstream social media platform.
Almost 4,000 anti-Black slurs a day. Homophobic slurs happening just as often. And it's not like these numbers were zero before.
From short-form social media to safe haven for bigoted scum. All it took was one CEO.

Wake up, time to die
http://blog.edtechie.net/twitter/wake-up-time-to-die/ another #twitterdeathwatch post on the impermanence of platforms in general, and the need to own your own domain.
Sorry found this funny. ALL THE FREDOM WITH NONE OF THE SPEECH! lol #TwitterEndTimes #twitter #TwitterDeathWatch
Is there an official "Twitter vs. Lettuce" stream yet?
I like #GoodbyeTwitter and #BurnTwitterBurn and #TwitterDeathWatch more than I like #RIPTwitter. I'm hearing of increasing platform instability as their production systems rot.
I'll tell you one thing, Twitter disaster/impending doom has made me more active on social networking than I've ever been. Is this the same as when people would hang out in underground stations during the blitz and talk ... about everything? Will this be how the apocalypse goes down? #CuriousMinds #TwitterDeathWatch
@jeffhandley Me, I don't feel confident enough to predict an exact date, but I'm willing to bet money the birdsite will be down before Christmas.
