the sudden explosion of “xitter”, pronounced to elicit a giggle as the hot new way to refer to the “company, website and app, X, formerly known as twitter” is awesome

“Xitter was full!”

Would that make anything posted by Musk “sewer gas” instead of hot air? Who’s got a match?

And apparently they’re slowest to add community notes to the misinformation spread by the blue checkmarks, who are now fairly consistently the most toxic of active disinformation spreaders. So… yeah, it really seems like what Elno wanted to create out of the ruins of Twitter was a forum for misinformation to spread.

I’m sure that suits the Bonesaw family too.

a Community Notes volunteer

Does Xitter at least plan to pay them also or just the ones who keep spreading misinformation?

[jlw]

Xitter doesn’t pay its bills, so why would it pay “volunteers?”

[Steve_L]

I’d bet they offer to pay their “volunteers” in the most succulent of currencies: exposure.
