Removing the post button would increase the quality of twitter a lot, i think
Repost, like and reply are metrics that can be used to gauge how popular posts are, by removing that they can push whatever they want as “popular” with no real way of knowing. This is like Netflix Top 10 with no insight into the metrics.

I mean I don’t think you need to see the metrics. They’re the top 10 because they show you the same fucking content over and over and over again at the top of your “feed” or whatever. Even content you’ve already watched.
And I don’t even understand why. What do they have to gain from this?
That’s been changing for me lately. All of a sudden youtube is throwing me curve-balls and it’s great.
Yup. I canceled Netflix when they removed the star ratings because it was clear what they were doing. Most people didn’t care, though.
Anyone still on shitter is not going to care. There is zero integrity on that platform at this point. Just people supporting hate speech and Musk by their very participation.
I hard disagree with that actually, there are a lot of people on the platform that Karma dive and intentionally try to do post that will up their interaction. But if you remove those systems then they’re not going to care about the platform anymore. Not that those people are adding good content to the platform in the first place but they will leave the platform to find other areas due to this change
In general whatever anyone does to anything, current userbase will 90% of the time be against it. But
“Next, we’ll remove all the action buttons with their superfluous interaction counts from the main timeline,” Musk posted in a subscriber-only post on X in October of last year. “Just view count will show, unless you tap into a post.”
So the main thing will be views. Not how many agree, how many object. Views
And probably it will also become the main analytic datapoint
Shit in, shit out
So basically “we only want you to see what we decide you should see” since the views is decided by their own proprietary algorithm
He should remove the “post” button while he’s at it.
Yes! Do it. Make your platform even less relevant, Lonnie. Run that shit right into the ground.
I think it was the plan all along. Right before the US elections. The platform that had lots of media and open minded people on it, but that’s all a thing of the past now.
