They can probably spin this as a net positive to engagement honestly. Since this makes it much harder for bots to operate, it means ad views are more likely to be humans. Since humans can also now only view so much content a day, they could say that it’s more likely for them to engage in advertising content because they have nothing else to engage with.

We all know that’s all total bullshit but it sounds good so marketing execs will eat it up

Don’t think so, twitter was always the ugly duckling when it came to buying ad space. Marketing teams have usually flocked to insta and facebook which has better click-through rate and impression numbers than twitter. If they were fluffing their numbers with bots which, let’s be honest, they definitely were, then it’s just adding a giant pile of shit to the (marketing-wise) stink pile that twitter has always been, even before musk arrived

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
