MODERATORS
I was going to ask, what is he going to do? You've seemed to have answered that.
You can't just, you know, force someone to use your product...
In theory, he could do in-house things to incentivize those companies to want to add that feature back.
In reality, that would make him lose even more money, so it'll never happen.
"Looking into"
I'm sure the API fees plus Twitter's woes made it not worth it. I also imagine the use wasn't that high, Twitch integration is much more important.
What's he going to do, other than confirm people are abandoning his shit platform, and whine to his ball garglers about how he's had to face the consequences of his own actions?
Remember when Elon Musk tried to go to war with Apple and they invited him to Apple campus and went on "a walk?" And Musk immediately went to stfu mode?
Twitter adds API access fees and removes moderation.
Companies: remove Twitter integration
Elon: Autistic screeching
Imagine the screeching if they add Mastodon integration.
