“@Liv_Boeree @micsolana It’s super easy to get Fentanyl *right now*. People buy it in open air drug markets in SF and take it right in front of you in broad daylight! They don’t even try to hide. I see this almost every time I drive to Twitter. Just as with alcohol prohibition, people didn’t actually…”
The tweet archive.
15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“@pri13420 @investmattallen @ShellenbergerMD @robbysoave Yes, but, more importantly, doing so by massive theft of Twitter data”
“@investmattallen @ShellenbergerMD @robbysoave We’re enabling users to post long articles & earn income from subscribers, but we’re not excluding other media. Substack was temporarily categorized as “unsafe” when we discovered that they were illegally downloading vast amounts of data to pre-populate their Twitter clone.”
“@davidmweissman That is true for some, but for many it was simply because they had a buddy at Twitter or were a Mashable intern 10 years ago or they outright bought it”
“Our landlord at SF HQ says we’re legally required to keep sign as Twitter & cannot remove “w”, so we painted it background color. Problem solved! https://t.co/1iFjccTbUq”
“@davidmweissman @TitterDaily Too much corruption with how legacy checks were handed out in the past. As @TimSweeneyEpic said, accounts should grow or shrink their influence based on the quality of their posts, not because they were anointed by someone years ago at Twitter.”
“@iamharaldur Twitter”
“@BretWeinstein 1. Substack links were never blocked. Matt’s statement is false. 2. Substack was trying to download a massive portion of the Twitter database to bootstrap their Twitter clone, so their IP address is obviously untrusted. 3. Turns out Matt is/was an employee of Substack.”
“Also, their feed is the Twitter equivalent of diarrhea. It’s unreadable. They would have far more real followers if they only posted their top articles. Same applies to all publications.”
“@ashleevance You could literally film a Walking Dead episode unedited in downtown SF. This is where San Francisco politics leads and Twitter was exporting this self-destructive mind virus to the world. With some exceptions, other tech companies are still doing so. Evil in guise of good.”
“Twitter will be updating its recommendation algorithm based on user suggestions every 24 to 48 hours”
“@WallStreetSilv Most important, Twitter is never boring!”
“Twitter open source Spaces discussion happening now! https://t.co/VpS6frbOhT https://x.com/i/spaces/1jMJgLdenVjxL”
“Twitter recommendation source code now available to all on GitHub https://t.co/9ozsyZANwa https://github.com/twitter/the-algorithm”
“@cb_doge Twitter is the news”
“Any individual person’s Twitter account affiliated with a verified organization is automatically verified”
“Twitter Verified now available worldwide!”
“@simplydt @TrungTPhan @Twitter And making it much easier for writers to charge subscription fees for premium content”
“@simplydt @TrungTPhan @Twitter Increasing long form to 10k characters soon, along with simple formatting tools”
“@BillAckman @Twitter Good idea”
“In the coming weeks, Twitter will prioritize replies by: 1. People you follow 2. Verified accounts 3. Unverified accounts Verified accounts are 1000X harder to game by bot & troll armies. There is great wisdom to the old saying: “You get what you pay for.””
“Twitter will open source all code used to recommend tweets on March 31st”
“@RichardGrenell @Twitter It will be made open source, but we’re finding so many bugs that those should be fixed first”
“@RichardGrenell @Twitter Go to your Followers tab if you only want to see their posts or make a List for specific accounts. The recommendation code is being cleaned up, so expect some oddness during this process. Debugging how ~200M posts are distilled down to ~200 is tricky.”
“@doc_gero Twitter can unfortunately send one down a negativity rathole at times. Good to take breaks.”
“@MatthewDR @Twitter 🔥🤣 😢”
“@Zattestore Twitter just served me a bra ad (heavy sigh)”
“@TitterDaily @CommunityNotes @Twitter Haha what a tool”
“@farzyness May they do this all day! Drives advertising revenue for Twitter lol.”
“@techbubble @Twitter So you’re saying you don’t want a bra? 🤣”
“@danielhoughton @anothercohen @iamharaldur I would like to apologize to Halli for my misunderstanding of his situation. It was based on things I was told that were untrue or, in some cases, true, but not meaningful. He is considering remaining at Twitter.”
“This helpful video explains what happened at Twitter today https://t.co/LCx4jRIiCk https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=c1PGKZUqKyE”
“Accounts engaging in repeated, egregious weaponization of DMCA on Twitter or encouraging weaponization of DMCA will receive temporary suspensions. That said, reasonable media takedown requests are, of course, appropriate and will always be supported.”
“@TheRabbitHole84 New Twitter is the source of truth”
“Sorry for turning Twitter from nurturing paradise into place that has … trolls 🧌 https://t.co/HaWl1jPfOm”
“The ability of Twitter advertising to reach the most influential people in the world is often not fully appreciated. While a few other social networks are technically bigger, Twitter is where the writers & leaders spend their time.”
“@quantumVerd @Twitter @Tesla obv”
“Periodic reminder to try using Twitter Lists. Will greatly improve your experience.”
“@emollick Good use of long tweet! Next update will allow much longer tweets with basic formatting, so you can post any content on Twitter. We’re also spinning up subscriptions, so you can charge people for some content and they can easily pay with one click.”
“More Twitter Files from Matt Taibbi”
“@MKBHD Twitter is getting scammed by phone companies for $60M/year of fake 2FA SMS messages”
“@SirineAti @boo You are not alone. When I ask people if they use Twitter, almost all have for many years. When I ask if they’ve ever bought something from an ad after using the site for a decade, the answer is almost always no. That’s insane! The biggest problem is that Twitter optimized for…”
“@boo My apologies, you must be a genius, which is why Twitter has the worst ad relevance on Earth. Almost nobody buys anything on Twitter, but almost everyone on Instagram does. That is being fixed.”
“@Tedmund_ I was made the Tom of Twitter by Twitter!”
“@hugowiz Some of Twitter’s prior board members had never written a single Tweet!”
“Sorry for showing you so many irrelevant & annoying ads on Twitter! We’re taking the (obvious) corrective action of tying ads to keywords & topics in tweets, like Google does with search. This will improve contextual relevance dramatically.”
“@cb_doge True, but, on the plus side, their constant reporting about me on Twitter has driven usage to record levels 🤣”
“@thecryptojourno @platformer The “source” of the bogus Platformer article is a disgruntled employee who had been on paid time off for months, had already accepted a job at Google and felt the need to poison the well on the way out. Twitter will be taking legal action against him.”
“@TitterTakeover @mashable @Twitter This is gonna be great”
“The new CEO of Twitter is amazing https://t.co/yBqWFUDIQH”
