    I personally don't care as I haven't had a social media account in years. But yeah my best guess is they want that sweet sweet ad money.

    Because they are paying for the X business tier, also cashing in on impression revenue and ad credits. Also it's not just one account, there is the lodestone API news feed and the actual social media one, not to mention other languages.

    I love when people try to hide their disgusting and toxic bigotry by trying to gaslight people into thinking that being a sensitive and moral person is bad lol. LIke, just admit to yourself that you're a horrible person and let the rest of us be happy.
    Isn't this a Blue Sky user here? I haven't seen anyone be a bigot here and he's already calling everyone who doesn't agree with him that. And labeling himself a sensitive and moral person with no basis whatsoever. I mean, I have to admit I didn't think they would be that this easy to spot.

    No, a company priority is to make long term money and being vigilant to not destroy the market because of greed, the exact thing that is happening today in the gaming industry because many companies though they could abuse their consumers and get away with it all in the name of MAKING MONEYS.

    As a rule people who can only think short term are by definition idiot and as such shouldn't be trusted, emulated or listened to.

    Are you kidding me? That's what a company's priority should be, not what it is. Short term profits get prioritized over long term goals almost every time... The shareholders want results now, not later.

    This is naive. You are describing an ideal world, not reality.

    You mean like how Elon Musk has been throwing a temper tantrum since Dec 25 2024? Where he was taking away peoples blue check marks and suspending accounts for people who disagreed with him? And that the people he was doing this to were on the same right-wing side as him? After all the "fragile people" as you put it moved to bluesky.

    EDIT: Or how he has been known to tweak X's algorithm so his posts gets more visibly shown. Which originally started because he was getting less clout over football.
