It's hilarious watching all the criticisms of, and sometimes outrage about, the changes Musk is making.

It was generally terrible before Musk took it over but it was generally enjoyable if you could keep the rightwing psychos out of your feed. Now rightwing psychos have all of their posts boosted so they will be the first thing you see in the replies and it's just tedious. I check back in now and then to look at the mess and quickly log back out. I got on Blue Sky about a month ago and it's a lot better, at least for the moment. I'm sure it will become horrible once it opens up where you don't need an invite to get an account but that's probably a while down the road. Anyway I just got another invite code if any of youse want in.

So funny though because there are one or two changes that are legit good. Like community notes, and also that people you follow are put at the top of QTs.

Actual chid abuse images only please. No hypotheticals.

I have a question for you all: is the Advanced Search working at all?

I am trying to read someone's Tweets from 2017, and the old method, where you set the time frame to a two week period and search January 1, 2017 to January 15, 2017, then 1/15 to 1/31, and so on, no longer works.

Am I just doing something wrong? Is there some method anyone can recommend?

As you might have catched, Elon said he's going to remove the block function. Given the history so far, there's no way to know if it's actually going to happen, but still.

Just keeps trying to come up with an idea worse than the last one.

^ One example of many of what a terrible idea this is (thread):

Elon is such a nincompoop he says climate change is "possibly overstated in the short term." Like we don't have about 6-7 years to try to fix this problem before it becomes unmanageable. Wasn't that the whole point behind Tesla?
