ugh

From what I’ve read, links were redirecting to “shock” websites. It’s more of an old-internet Rick roll, but with gore type content instead of a silly music video. I don’t think we have to worry about data, but we’ll learn more in the next hour(s).

Thank you!

Can someone ELI5 what this means? Do users need to be vigilant? Is information or malware being passed around? What can we expect going forward?

I could see this actually gaining popularity from their Instagram user base. Twitter doesn’t attract younger people or influencers. It’ll be like discovering Facebook for gen z, where they can also share text posts. Maybe that’ll attract the people who left Twitter for turning alt-right. If it gets big enough, public figures could even leave Twitter. I’d be shocked if that happened, but a gal can hope.

This isn’t something I have any interest and I hate meta as much as anyone else here, but I’m interested in seeing how it will play out. If we can’t escape capitalism, at least we can watch it as a social experiment.

Thank you, because I was confused.

So it stops running off the desktop and runs on a different computer. I feel like that’s a waste of electricity when we have speaker and phone home assistants.
