@mmasnick this is the warning you get when you follow a link to Mastodon from Twitter ("spammy" LOL):

@mmasnick This is utterly ridiculous. But not surprising.

@mmasnick That’s going to get *so many* #artists, #writers, #gamedev and #twitch and #youtube creators banned. Elmo clearly has no idea how valuable #twitter is as a PR outlet.

@mmasnick

This is certainly the death knell of Twitter. Countless people have links to their other content in their bios.

It's really an amazing story of a crazy collapse. Elon is lighting 44 billion on fire and dancing around the flames.

@mmasnick
I read somewhere that within short these practices will be forbidden by EU law.
It is distortion of competition.
Google tries to do this too.

@mmasnick this is doubly frustrating since most programs like debirdify and such use the profile information. But I am hopeful that it will help more people realize how far he IS going to push things and that it is not worth staying there any longer. You are feeding the beast tearing off your arm.

@mmasnick Not sure whether the Berlin Wall or the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory is a better metaphor for this.

@mmasnick See what he is doing makes me laugh… It’s like sticking your finger in a hole to plug a leaking dam. I think we all know how this is going to workout…. What a joke it all is…

He's gone full Tonto. What a jerk!@mmasnick

@mmasnick People don't want to be caught in the burning building.

@mmasnick what a butthurt twat.

@mmasnick Elon couldn't manage his way out of a paper bag

@mmasnick

Well, I never thought that I would be in violation of Twitter’s user agreement. This is where we are. The platform is a zombie.

@mmasnick elon being a fucking idiot, instance: #3249872389457

@mmasnick what a god damn baby.

@mmasnick FLEE

@mmasnick “Such free. Many speech.” 😀

@mmasnick WOW what a control freak he is.

@mmasnick free speech 😂

@mmasnick Free speech my a**

I just closed my Twitter account when i read this earlier.

Also they refused to take action against a 100%% racist tweet - I was informed tonight. Ban of journalists and much more, including accepting Trump back.

I can not support Twitter or Alon with actions like these.

@mmasnick Good grief. What free speech, #Musk?

@mmasnick Unfuckingreal. Truly next level.

@mmasnick this is the hump that finally pushed me over the edge into making a mastodon account just now. He's gonna streisand this too just like the jet location thing.

@mmasnick I would love for someone to weigh in re:anti-trust.

@mmasnick he’s so ignorant about it I bet they only consider / auto moderate mastodon.social accounts 😂

@mmasnick the desperation is really setting in! I think he’ll sell about $10 billion more in TSLA stock over the next 3 months, then he’ll declare bankruptcy and shut everything down.
The banks will require Elno to make them whole (they are writing off portions of the debt now) so that will be even more billions he’ll be flushing down the toilet.
Maybe he should have carried in a toilet instead of a sink.

@mmasnick interesting that TikTok is not on this list

@mmasnick really irritates me that my account has been in violation of this new policy for almost 2 months and I'm still not suspended

@mmasnick So stupid...unless nailing the coffin is his intent.

@mmasnick Even his defenders are not gonna like this. Looking forward to screenshots of priceless comments

@mmasnick Apartheid a weird flex for a social media platform.

@mmasnick wait is this real wtf

@mmasnick bruh check your discord

@mmasnick I’m not jumping off of Twitter (yet) but it’s stuff like that which gets me to invest more time on alternative options like Mastadon.

@mmasnick lowkey wanna reactivate my twitter so that i can get officially kicked off

@mmasnick odd that onlyfans isn't on there

@mmasnick @eirliani I can’t believe what I’m reading. Linking to other social networks is now a terminable offense! Fascinating. I wonder if my tombstone post on the bird site will get my presence destroyed.

@mmasnick hopefully this results in more subs on mastadon. Need to get to critical mass then bye bye twitter

@mmasnick this going to far, was never a problem to promote your other social media platforms profiles, he is taking it as a war!

@mmasnick haha, but not Telegram...

@mmasnick has Elon Musk any liasion to Erich Honecker (former President of GDR) or brick builders?

@mmasnick Have you got a link to that Twitter post?

@mmasnick So free such speech

@mmasnick https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1533616384747442176?t=Ql9jQNgqd2ExHHdeK5NV_A&s=19

"The acid test for any two competing socioeconomic systems is which side needs to build a wall to keep people from escaping? That’s the bad one!" -Musk 6 months ago

@mmasnick https://mastodon.social/@MissingThePt/109536422245503324

@mmasnick thought this was an interesting response about how the policy violates EU regulation

@mmasnick So this is, finally, an open declaration of war.
