Also I have always had twitter embeds disabled on something awful and the percentage of posts that are just mind-numbing lines of pale blue URLs is almost saddening

How you do this?

I would like to say congratulations to all those who will have sexual intercourse soon after hearing of this news and naming the new entities brought into the world 9 months later after the social media company in question and/or the one who now owns said social media company :angel:

There might be a way to disable it in forum settings but if not you can also achieve this with an anti-tracking extension in your browser. For example, "Disconnect" will prevent Twitter embeds from loading under its default settings.

Is this the best move for Twitter’s shareholders? No, they might want to sue that the company didn’t shop themselves around. That said, after witnessing Tumblr shift dramatically when it was acquired by Verizon, it’s probably better for some Twitter users that Musk buy Twitter than Microsoft or Google. It’s pretty much the last blogging platform left that isn’t restricting porn.

Sky falling? Maybe. Possibly not.

I miss already vanguard group, morgan stanley, and blackrock inc the previous major shareholders.

Not only did these fine capitalist companies care deeply about this horrid platform our country determines to use to solve it's problems, but they also donated heavily to our current president who is doing a great job!

if twitter is worth $44 billion then with the amount of free speech that cspam brings makes SA worth at least $50 billion!!

I'd vastly prefer heartless investment banks who care only about financial data (and the management bonus) over a one man empire builder who wishes he was an oligarch.

It's people who want political power incidentally so they can strip regulation vs person who wants political power so he can treat the world as his toy

If you count them all, this sentence has exactly seventy-two characters.
Twitter: "We're not letting Elon buy Twitter".

Elon: "Okay, how's $44 billion"?

Twitter: "Okay, lets make a deal for you to buy Twitter".
