Anyone else notice X had a very sharp nose dive a few days ago? I recently logged onto an account I don't really use but had to comment on Lib and Fash posts occasionally. And ~3 days ago I gained a follower every hour (about 20 before this) and bots are liking every post and comment I ever made. The bots really took over a few days ago.

Incredible that melon-musk managed to both kill off legitimate users who didn't want to be spied on, and cause an explosion of bot accounts, the very thing he's been complaining about the whole time. ik ik he doesn't care about the absurdity or hypocrisy but it is pretty funny

Need to bring back truetwit (anyone else remember truetwit lmao?)

I honestly think Musk might have expected it to crash and burn by now and might be frustrated that it hasn't. The debt for purchasing it goes away if the company declares bankruptcy, and he probably wants to write off the purchase of X dot com and a bunch of other shit but can't do it as long as Twitter is solvent.

Honetly, the bots are probably one of the few reasons that platform is still around. Keeping the corpse of twitter shuffling around this mortal coil.
