“New Twitter will strive to optimize unregretted user-minutes”
“Hate speech impressions (# of times tweet was viewed) continue to decline, despite significant user growth! @TwitterSafety will publish data weekly. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom of reach. Negativity should & will get less reach than positivity. https://t.co/36zl29rCSM”
“Exactly [@JudiciaryGOP] The whole world knows that the @EU_Commission weaponized its censorship law against @elonmusk because he bought Twitter and made it a free speech platform. The Committee will continue to expose the @EU_Commission as it tries to hide its decade-long censorship regime.”
“Try using the X API [@Scobleizer] Met a founding engineer today from @Replit. Jen Li. We were both judging the @Pokee_AI hackathon. They have me some credits and I built two apps in 20 minutes using the X API:a weather one which mapped storms being reported in by my climate scientist list and another monitoring”
“This is insane [@cedrichohnstadt] Reddit continues to be anti-free speech. I just got a lifetime ban from the "comics" subreddit. Yesterday I posted a humor comic that got over 5,400 upvotes. Then I noticed that there was a pinned post from the moderators saying that comics linked from X could no longer be… )”
“Tesla is down to the last few hundred Model S & X cars in inventory. Poignant end of an era. [@mitchellh] Traded in my 2020 Model S for a brand new plaid X before they discontinue it. Car is amazing, but the FSD hype is real. It blew away my expectations coming from the 2020 hardware. 95% of my miles are self driven in LA over the past month. I wouldn’t have even believed myself lol.”
“This madness needs to end [@GlobalAffairs] Lucy Connolly has been released from prison after serving 10 months of an unjust 31-month sentence for a single deleted post. The UK government's crackdown on free speech remains a concern, but it’s great to see Lucy reunite with her family. X will continue to be steadfast in our”

“@eglyman @tryramp @Twitter Twitter is growing super fast. I hope it continues!!”
“@RobertMSterling @WholeMarsBlog @nytimes Pretty much only time I see NYT articles is when they’re mentioned here. Their readership, especially user-minutes per day, is tiny compared to this platform.”
“@yoyoel Talked to civil society leaders @JGreenblattADL, @YaelEisenstat, @rashadrobinson, @JGo4Justice, @normanlschen, @DerrickNAACP, @TheBushCenter Ken Hersch & @SindyBenavides about how Twitter will continue to combat hate & harassment & enforce its election integrity policies”
“@wholemars S and X will always continue to exist in the fleet, just not in production, but it is still a little sad”
“@neontaster We will also be adding simple formatting features like bold, underline & font size later this quarter. The goal is to allow people to publish long-form natively on Twitter, rather than forcing them to use another website. Twitter will continue to recommend brevity in tweets.”
“@laurenweinstein @stocktalkweekly Correct. I will continue to run Twitter until it is in a strong place, which will take some time.”

“@imPenny2x How much time does your phone say you’re spending on this platform? Should take ~8 hours of almost continuous scrolling to hit the limit unless we’re doing something wrong.”

“@dominustweet @WholeMarsBlog 🎯”

“I have been against a TikTok ban for a long time, because it goes against freedom of speech. That said, the current situation where TikTok is allowed to operate in America, but 𝕏 is not allowed to operate in China is unbalanced. Something needs to change. [@elonmusk] In my opinion, TikTok should not be banned in the USA, even though such a ban may benefit the 𝕏 platform. Doing so would be contrary to freedom of speech and expression. It is not what America stands for.)”
