I always felt that twitter (original) was like the little green radio Hitler used Pre-WW2, it is what Donald used to amplify his Message in 2016 and yes even to start the “birth certificate” drama with Obama.
So, When Elon First acquired twitter things changed, suddenly scores of people where fired, then things began to change slowly. The feeds felt different some people felt cut off and comments began to be segregated from each other. It was an interesting period, considering scores of people were fired or quit. But still remained the ability to moderate and just oversee the number of posts and people, I believe he quickly began using AI to oversee the traffic, posts, etcetera.
