     @arstechnica Maybe his bigger picture has been systematically killing that platform.

     @arstechnica probably done so that users can’t see the title of any negative stories against musk.

     @arstechnica On that similar note though, your link doesn’t have a preview.

     My only reaction to the website formerly known as Twitter is "Please die already."

     Hey, Musk can afford to lose the ENTIRE $40+ billion. Too bad I don't think he is capable of learning anything from his biggest and "bestest" mistakes. But Twitter was a sewer before I left and from all reports has only become worse and more harmful since.
