Back on countersocial, Elon Musk has finally broken it, utter chaos over there, I am restricted from DMS, liking retweeting, but he is allowing me to post statuses. Some people can't do anything, he only wants paid subscribers but IMO this isnt the way to do it. #twitter
@Paige814 I couldn’t do anything except deactivate my account, which is what I did.
@KonaHonu I'm sure this will make more people develop a SM plan B where they will want to go, and journalists etc too. I always knew I would come here but everyone in my community is scattered and can't contact each other now. A salutary tale :( Twitter should be ashamed of themselves for not making provision for agencies and front line workers and organisations, unfortunately he thinks in the here and now, I don't know how he has gotten as far as he has, behaving professionally like this :(
@Paige814
I purposely had no followers and was not an active tweeter. I used twitter to follow a large number of news sites, analysts, commentators, scientists and others. Sadly, that is all gone now as the user population here is different. Perhaps things will change over time. Right now, I am concerned about the twitter users who relied on interaction with various emergency entities, like weather, first responders, and law enforcement. They may no longer have access to them via twitter.
