Even if Mr beast posted his videos on Twitter I doubt it would make a difference. Why would people come to Twitter just to watch his vids?

[–] Fihn@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They wouldn't go there for the videos. The videos would be watched by the people already on twitter and scrolling through trending, then presumably some would follow and watch them in their regular feed. I rarely use twitter but I like the idea of hearing how the payment he's promising pans out given all of twitter's unpaid bills lately.

Yeah did you notice "should be"

Not "we match" or even "we beat" lol

"Should be" is the phrase of the lazy

The lazy and the intentionally evasive.

“Should be” is the phrase of the lazy

If I've learned anything from writing documents for the government, it's that any sentence that contains "should be" is better off changed to "shall be", or removed entirely.
