The press likes to call it a recall. Most of the time it's just an OTA update.

Yeah I was gonna say, isn't this literally just something that can be fixed with an OTA update?

I guess that's kind of the nice thing about modern technology, stuff like this doesn't require a full recall with manual work being done, it's literally just an update.

Not that I'd stick up for Musk, I think it's horrible what he's doing to destroy Twitter (although I do like the recent media tab grid view update, I wish it were optional so it could still have the list view available too), but I feel like this is kinda being unfair lol

edit: Apparently this is just the normal outdated technology that is used so it's not the media's fault, I guess that makes sense.
