so locked out of tweetdeck on mobile again. I'm guessing it's permanent this time.

and the new updated tweetdeck on PC is a very hefty pile of shit that barely moves.
 
I had a hunch we were always headed this way


True.

Though I think it is also entirely possible that this was wasn’t planned and is a desperate change of course.

Basically, Elon may have bought into all the whining from MAGA chuds about being excluded from “the blue checkmark crowd” and genuinely came to believe that was representative of a wider untapped demand for that sweet, sweet Twitter verification with little else of any value attached to it.

And in general these days I tend to err to the side of “poorly informed, knee-jerk gut reaction” rather than “calculated long-term evil scheme” when trying to figure out what’s behind Elon’s actions.
