Elon Musk overpaid for X and he's making everyone else suffer for it. What's more, he's not some free speech advocate like you all think. He's a classic "rules for thee and not for me" elitist — just check out how quickly he reversed course on Don Lemon after the Don asked some questions Peon didn't like.
So yeah, all of you who think you're upholding some basic human right by backing this fag (Elon, not Don 🤣) ain't doing shit. You idiots do realize free speech applies only to the relationship between the citizen and the government, not private companies (and to back this viewpoint reeks of socialism, and we know you Peon backers can't be SOCIALISTS 😳).
Twitter/X is a socialist platform. It's a socialist platform owned by a fake ass libertarian who's capitalising off MAGA's intense need to not be socialist. I'm just going to say it, because it's true!
What's more, web3 suffers by claiming to uphold some narrative of decentralisation yet allowing X to become the centralised chokepoint between projects and communities. If the average web3 project loses its Twitter account, it loses its audience.
X alternatives aren't quite there yet. Warpcast still gives me needless friction when I try to sign up. The others don't have traction beyond their initial paid marketing campaigns. But I'm looking at the trend, not the snapshot. Things are getting better, and if I can ever get this goddamn phone to sync up to Warpcast, I'll start using that more than Twitter.
The fuck kind of name is "X" anyway. By the way. Stupid.
Peon'll keep you all in line with rocket gifs and posts about Doge, but he won't be able to right this ship. Twitter API costs are prohibitive. Web3 builders (including me) have no choice but to find X alternatives because no VC is going to back a socialfi startup that comes in with a $40,000/month baseline cost. Many projects that were building on top of Twitter had to stop because they ran out of money trying to pay. The alternatives also have no issue opening their social graphs to the public, allowing for major leaps forward in social analytics and algorithms. There's no way KOLab can ignore that, and projects with a lot more money than us are also taking note.
I'd advise you to move away from Twitter this bull market as well. The platform, despite Elon's best faggity efforts, continues to allow botted, forked posts from lazy KOLs to proliferate. If you ever catch yourself reading a thread that starts "I made $X00,000 in 2 days on SOL copytrading and you can, too" run, don't walk, to the block button. Those posts are mostly advertisements for subscription programs, and the rest are just engagement farming. You'll find way better alpha in smaller groups on TG and on Warpcast/Farcast.
Ofc I also know that you can't move away from Twitter cold turkey. I can't do it. It requires day to day diligence, but just realize that you're doing yourself a favor long term. I myself am tired of building up accounts and having them blocked for no reason or just because some faggit didn't like what I said on Spaces. Honestly, this whole wannabe alpha male contingent copytrading Elon's false bravado are some of the faggiest, softest jackoffs I've ever run into. Western culture is done, "bro," and I'm just here to extract a few more bucks out of you sissies so I can remove myself from your presence for good.
Join me. (And yes, I am well aware of the schizophrenia of that statement. That's why I said it.) 😆
