HibeeJibee Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Really don't understand their logic - surely the big money is in adverts/onward clicks; and advertisers/content producers want as many people as possible to see and read as much as possible? Stopping people who aren't logged in from viewing at all, and limiting what people who are can view, feels counter-productive? Plus even if you think the big money is in subscriptions - users won't see value if traffic is down?

Can't they sue him? That'd be a laugh. Why? They pay per view, not a flat rate, so their costs have plummeted along with the views, so they have more money to advertise elsewhere. Now, Twitter’s revenue has plummeted to… 1 hour ago, Bully Wee Villa said: I don't understand what this means. Apparently in reconfiguring Twitter’s interfaces and establishing limits, while in a crash program to pull all data from Google’s servers (that they don’t want to pay for anymore), they established a condition where their own interface ends up in a loop, constantly trying to connect and get new data that doesn’t exist, thereby dragging the whole system down in some sort of mad, self-inflicted, DDOS attack. A DDOS attack is a “Distributed Denial Of Service”, or when an attacker commands a huge number of devices or computers to contact the context to the targeted computer(s) and bombard them with requests at a frequency that exceeds their ability to respond, thereby knocking the system offline.

guinness Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Could it be a ploy to get it trending more? It's where I get my local news from but not anymore. Just deleted it because it's getting beyond a joke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just deleted it because it's getting beyond a joke. It seems to be an excuse hes made instead of admitting the site cant cope with all the traffic anymore. There doesnt seem to actually be a post limit, its just luck whether you get on the site or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 I’ve got shares in Tesla. When that SpaceX rocket exploded a few months ago the Tesla share price plummeted so I’m expecting the same here with this carry on. Superb for my dollar cost averaging 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 BlueSky seems to be the main Twitter alternative growing, most folk i follow saying theyll go there. Im off the Medium for just now i think, more articles/blogs than twitter profiles i think, and a lot quieter, but think a lot of folk will end up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
