I think so. The ads seem more relevant and less frequent. spam Bots are still there, but theyve been cut down as well. although there are still some keywords that still draw them out in the same frequency as before.
The homies getting banned is happening less as well. There used to be some keywords that would get your account banned seconds after posting, those seem to alteast be relaxed if not removed as well.
There seems to be a little more discourse than before, not sure if that has to do with elon or between election cycles though. Unfortunately theres still the same idiots on both sides that were there before that make every damn thing political.

Can you still buy a blue checkmark?

Yes. IIRC it's $8 if paid through twitter, and $11 through Itunes.
I have one on my business account. It's worth it to me there, I like the whole 2 minutes until a post sends so I can fix grammar and shit. It seems to have increased interaction and views as well.
Not sure i'd pay for it for my personal, but on my personal there's a small group of people I interact with and growing that account isn't something I'm trying to do.

Funny how something you can buy increases audience, maybe its like buying a promoted ad on a classifieds site

It will be interesting to see when he releases the algorithm if it actually does and how so.
The main reason I keep the blue check on that account is because it borders on a parody account, that has tricked idiots into thinking it was real. Including news orgs. and it brings me much joy

Instead of making them judge, jury, and executioner over cis-genders, I thought that curtained-off section of the video rental / book store worked just fine.

Todays controversy surrounds a popular content aggregator on Twitter who got a DMCA strike against him for stealing content from the best aurora photographer on Twitter. The content creator asked for payment for use of their images.
Elon musk personally banned the aurora photographer and called asking for payment “blackmail.” Pretty fucking unbelievable considering stealing copyrighted content is illegal

Stop following nazis and anti-trans people. You'll stop getting alot of that stuff.
I don't understand why you could hate this guy.
Here's what you have predicted what you thought would happen based on this thread:
- Twitter would fail in 3 months. - Elon would go bankrupt over Twitter - Elon would get fired from Tesla
None of that happened.
That and numerous insults.
Enough with the hate

You have no clue how Twitter works. You see the accounts they want you to see.
I’ve blocked Elon repeatedly yet he always comes back
The way you so desperately want me to like Elon is so fucking weird, even to the point of PMing me about it. I don’t like the dude. Get over it.
