People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

MODERATORS
The library is still freely available. Its just grown beyond belief and having an efficient way to look up information has been monetized and enshittified by google and friends for decades. AI is just the newest iteration. (And I'm largely pro ai as the tool to find information).
Your comment sounds like it’s suggesting the inverse of what is true (AI data is free, but search engine results are paywalled). Google is “free” but they just float their shitty sponsored links to the top. AI can’t be used at all unless you have a subscription. Sure, you can run your own models locally, but now you’re offloading costs to needing good hardware (during a time when AI has also destroyed the GPU industry for all of us that want to build PCs).
