Twitter communities have been around a good while. As in, I even wrote a search app that found new communities as people created them, and people used my app (and other apps) for about a year or so, and then eventually Twitter added that functionality themselves, so I deprecated my app, and then about year or so later, Elon bought Twitter and communities died from lack of use/ support.
In other words, this was around for a while before Elon.
Participating in an Elon ran version of Reddit sounds just as fun as being launched into the sun would be

You think he’s that stupid? He’d launch his rocket at night, of course!
We should test how fun it would be to be launched in the sun, with Elon serving as the test subject.
Come on, give the sun more credit, atleast it’ll be beautiful to look at for a while!
Absolutely. Beyond shit management, I’ve never seen someone so desperately in love with meme culture who absolutely does not understand humor on any level.
I think u have Elon all wrong my man he’s a comedy genius modern version of Laurel and Hardy

As if the average reddit user would fall for this, Twitter is awful.
I guess if you were looking for a platform that is run by a large man child, is somehow on shakier ground than Reddit, and will suck then this is good news?
And on the same day when they fucked up their infrastructure so badly that they had to rate-limit all users. Yeah, okay Elon, you can host my community for me.
I love how all mainstream platforms keep mimicking each other to become exact copies of one another. I wonder if there was a way for platforms to collaborate with each other and interconnect somehow rather than duplicating efforts by copying all features from all other platforms? 🤔
But if we don’t create a walled garden then how can we lock in users and maximize our profits???
Some sort of protocol to publish activity?
We’ll call it Humongo DBHTML (short for Data Based Hypertext-based Terminator Machine Language), and it can allow Planet Net to plan its planet plans for fixing all the utopia bugs.
Why not call it PlaNet
If you go for this your dumber than the average bear. Lest we forget, Twitter pioneered screwing over third party devs, twice! Once back in 2012 and then more recently
Lol no thanks.
They can’t handle Twitter and they want to reboot reddit?
I’m part of the F-Zero Twitter community and the most action it gets is from bots that somehow break into the invite only community. (Thanks Elon)
It’s a cool idea but suffers from the same kind of insulation of discord, which end up running counter to the openness twitter got popular for.
It warms my heart that Twitter spent millions developing a product that will never take off ❤️
Wouldn’t be Elon’s first time.
I mean I guess they technically take off, there’s just the aftermath …
Im getting google+ vibes
Fuck it. Bring google+ back!
Google+ could have been amazing. It did so much right compared to the others.
No activity whatsoever on it though
As someone who moderated several G+ communities, it had plenty of activity - spam. For whatever reason Google’s own filters didn’t catch it well and it’d all go to the mods. Also it didn’t have much discussion. Just sharing links and reacting. Got boring real fast.
Look at that, spez’s idol being opportunistic against him. Dumbass.
I’m also enjoying that morsel of Schadenfreude.
the last place I would want to chat would be with a twitter group
I would rather slowly choke to death
The kind of people still left on Twitter are not the people I want to be sharing a reddit-like community with
Haha and to think Spez tried to suck Musk’s dick a week ago during one of his interviews.
As if the people fleeing reddit’s API lockdown would have any interest in this.
Most of the people fleeing Reddit are the same people who shit on Musk in r/facepalm.
Yeah, definitely not going to take off with the leaving Reddit crowd. Might attract current Twitter users through shudders
