I’m more optimistic about Twitter’s future than I have been in years. Don’t get me wrong, I think there’s a very real chance that under Musk’s leadership, Twitter might break apart and fade into irrelevance. But Musk himself notes the same thing! Keeping Twitter open to a wide range of content, but making it easy to control what content you see, as user, is a worthy ideal. Pulling it off, that’s the trick. But as a privately-held company Musk is free to make changes that move Twitter away from being optimized for engagement and towards being optimized for enjoyment.

It’s interesting that Threads has entirely leapfrogged the “cool place to chat with chums” phase of its social network existence and gone straight into the “bad office party” phase

i’m no longer complaining about twitter’s “for you” tab after seeing threads so they’ve accomplished that

“Twitter with the TikTok algorithm” is a good description of threads I saw somewhere.

TikTok has far fewer brands and celebrities.
Low-hanging fruit, but this review of a $100 box cutter is a masterpiece of the form.https://daringfireball.net/linked/2023/09/05/studio-neat-keen
