3 months of severance and a lot of passion and a team of engineers you’ve spent years working with could certainly go a LONG way 

I remember Creative Mornings.

It’s certainly possible. I built my own social media platform, a travel journal site, and in the years that I’ve had it, I pay $6/mo to host it on Digital Ocean, $15/yr for the domain name, and I haven’t paid anything for the AWS that hosts all the photos. If it takes off and more people than just my friends are using…

Hee, hee.
Timing is everything, right?
And one of many things that service lacked.

Quibi is back baby!

In normal circumstances, starting a copycat social network would be basically impossible (see: Truth). But now? You may be onto something. “Twitter, but not a cesspool, and no Elon.” No hate speech. Advertiser friendly. I think it’d at least have a decent chance of survival (celebs would performatively jump on board,…

Huh.
I had never thought of the issues your two posts bring up, so thank you for them.
And I also think you’re totally right: that if ever there was a time simply to make a new Twitter-lite only having learned from Twitter’s mistakes, now is the time.
According to the success of TikTok and the original Twitter, people…

“But the TV shows have mostly felt separated from the films, which is a problem from a structural standpoint.”

I like this comment. I will use it to jump on a landmine. I’m sure someone could use an excuse to yell at a stranger on the internet today.

“Twitter is a town square and must be protected" Elon right before he has an autistic meltdown over shit ideas failing 

“Perhaps it is because your real account sounds like a parody?” Musk tweeted at Markey early Sunday. “And why does your [profile picture] have a mask!?”

Elno proving once again that he’s nothing more than a petulant child with too much power.

Empty threats, it’s not as though it’s illegal to present yourself as another person under penalty of perjury.

But that also sounds like it’s kind of the point of the joke; this guy thinks he needs to work in a Blockbuster of all places in order to become a filmmaker when he’s got a plethora of much better options available to him.

Or they had m9vie geek parents, duh!

Hello, I used to work for Blockbuster back in high school (which thankfully means I have absolutely no nostalgia for the company, it deserves everything that happened to it) and I have a story.

Because I felt like commenting, and because providing that further context might have helped me understand more clearly where the reviewer was coming from. 

Vine, if actually resurrected, would have an uphill battle against platforms that offer short-form video content like TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.

Genius ideas so far:

A week ago I was literally in a group of millionaires in the music biz at dinner and NONE of them had anything good to say about Twitter.
