    No no, guys, you’re misunderstanding. He MEANS there’s too much negativity from people saying things like “X sucks since musk bought twitter…”

    He’s going to change those people’s tweets to say “X is great!”

    And by that I mean he’s going to have a team to edit tweets that he doesn’t like!

    If that’s not free speech, then Musk doesn’t know what is!

        Check out the mod log.

        Just looked: regardless of your personal opinion the comment is a breach of the terms of posting. It essentially said Musk should permanently retire himself from life.

    X/Twitter is a misinformation platform. If you know a major influencer that uses, consider informing and directing them to the ActivityPub alternatives, even advertising on their platforms if you can.
