Sure I do. Edit button, extended character limits, live talks, removal of extremely biased censorship, improved community notes, probably some other stuff if I thought about it. It's slightly more buggy and bot-filled at times, but it works fine. He has made some bone-headed decisions at times, but Twitter was always pretty buggy and bot-filled.

This isn't new but why the fuck is Twitter the only social media site that can do polls? Polls are the best! Polls should be everywhere!

Pretty sure you can do polls on Boomerbook. Get amongst it, Burto.

I was offered an invite to BlueSky. What are the pros and cons of that?

This recent onslaught of bot-follows aside, I still find it miles better than Facebook, even under Musk.

Speaking of polls, someone should do a poll in this thread… Do you call it Twitter or X? I’d be surprised if anyone calls it X

Way more bots, crypto bros, conservative bros, skanks, and hate speech popping up in my timeline and on comments/replies. Otherwise, it's pretty similar.

Edit button fucking terrible
Extended character limits fucking terrible, go to Facebook
It's like 25 times more buggy and the bots are everywhere, terrible experience

I tried it for a grand total of an hour. There was nobody there. Very much doubt I'll return

I'll take up residence in the RIP thread, that will be my Twitter
