Twitter Eyes Paid Subscription Model as Ad Revenue Plummets
Twitter Clingers?
It's wonderful: Sometime over the past three or four months, everyone -- including the dopey Karens who are always five years behind everyone else -- realized that Twitter is not "fun," it is a digital hellscape and petri dish for viral mental illness which the company has given over to vicious lunatics out for revenge against the world and, even worse, "journalists" to control.Twitter (TWTR) is actively exploring additional ways to make money from its users, including by considering a subscription model, CEO Jack Dorsey said Thursday. The move comes as Twitter suffers a sharp decline in its core advertising business. "You will likely see some tests this year" of various approaches, Dorsey told analysts on an investor call held to discuss the company's second quarter earnings results. Dorsey said he has "a really high bar for when we would ask consumers to pay for aspects of Twitter," but confirmed that the company is seeking to diversify its sources of revenue in what are "very, very early phases of exploring."lol, @Jack wants money from me so that I can be censored by twitter and #Cancelled by antifa shut-ins. Hey @Jack, suck my fat greasy hog, huh? I'll give you two nickels. It will be amusing as Twitter sinks and sinks into obscurity -- not just because it will be enjoyable watching Twitter's legions of vindictive transexual attactavists lose their jobs, but as the NeverTrumpers, RINOs, Thumbs and Taters who have invested literally countless hours of their short lives they will never ever get back into building their "Twitter Clout" begin confronting their poor life choices and start dangling themselves from ceiling rafters. "Twitter Clingers" courtesy of Muldoon. Afterthought: Most of the country -- especially the dregs of urban (fake news) "knowledge workers" -- remains captive in their own homes with only the internet for diversion, and Twitter still can't sell ads? LOL LOL lolololololololololol

I imagine it'll mean access to certain levels of people tweets.
Like, they'll break out the classification of blue checks into different layers, and people without a blue check will have to pay to see those with the blue checks.

If Twitter didn't exist now, I suppose the same material would just be scattered across the web, as in pre-Twitter times - but at the moment it's the message board/link farm for all serious discussion of C19, for example.
The "sewer" and "insane asylum" aspects are surely there, but you've got to actively bring it up on your screen. If you simply stick to credible or interesting people and organizations, it's a great tool.
Without it, I imagine many of the better people would just post material on their own websites, and the comments section would be the interactive part.

I remember about four and a half years ago when Twitter announced a really weird cross-promo deal with the NFL.
I had worked for an IT firm that had serious, eventually fatal problems seating sufficient quantities of users, and immediately recognized this as a symptom of the same.
The fact that Twitter remains a going concern this long is surprising to me, and I had chalked it up to them being quietly subsidized by rounds of VC funding or something.
Maybe they're just shitty, and had enough clout because of celebrity users to keep clicking along.

Twitter is an unmatched tool for information dissemination to the public.
I have lists setup for all my political follows and Andy Ngo has done an invaluable service to the public in posting his reports on antifa.
So all that goes away with the downfall of Twitter and we're in favor of this?
Where else is anyone going to get the news that the media is not reporting?

People whose mindthoughts I will seek out nowhere, regardless of platform, for obvious reasons - they have nothing of value to say, they're not (effectively) very smart or well informed people.
The worst Twitter experience I've had has been limited to the brief, mindless and ineffectual pushback or attacks on serious people, in their "Replies", which is why I only check replies for certain people. Sweet spot is those below the radar, so they don't attract the incredibly dumb "educated" sorts with their usually stupid responses. Those people have real replies on the substance of issues and often interact that way.

I always figured pay walls for nooz sites wasn't going to be very effective at generating revenue, and I'm not sure whether it is or not, for some.
But then, I don't think the pay wall is really about revenue. It's about control of the resource, and increasing its "value," for other measures of value beyond revenue.

More than 250 major consumer companies have joined the Stop Hate For Profit campaign, an effort to pressure Facebook (FB) and CEO Mark Zuckerberg to better police hate speech on its platform, supported by the NAACP, Anti-Defamation League, Common Sense Media, and other groups.
Starbucks, Microsoft, Adidas, Patagonia, Ford, and Yahoo Finance's parent company Verizon have all hit pause on their Facebook ad spending in order to send a message.
On June 26, the day Unilever joined the boycott, Facebook stock dropped 8%, hitting a low of $215. One month later, it's back up to $235. Shares hit a 52-week high of $250 just last week, even as the boycott continues. The stock is up 14% in 2020 amid the pandemic.

I really liked U2 when their first album came out, and I saw them in the SJSU ballroom in 1980. That show in fact was what banned concerts from the venue as it almost collapsed.
From the first album, I thought they'd really go somewhere - even though it was kind of same-same. But sadly, after that they turned into U2. So, I was half right.

Unfortunately, that won't happen to FB. That is because they are the greatest and most accurate advertising engine ever created. They've got so much information on their user base that they can pretty much deliver sales to advertisers on demand.

None of those tards understand the power of data mining and collection. The foreign intelligence collection on those platforms alone should terrify Americans. And yet they give their information away, freely, to Zuckerberg and Dorsey who DO NOT keep your information secure or confidential.

As I've mentioned here countless times, I'll have a DM on IG, if I mention a product (not even brand name) I will be instantly served ads from not only Amazoid but whoever else makes the damned things.
What's extra creepy is when I'll get served up ads based on voice conversations. That's one reason my phone is no longer with me when I'm at home. It gets to play by itself in another room.

One context I've found it useful was industry conferences. If you're following the rest of your team, you can get little updates about the breakout sessions that you didn't choose (and send info about the one you're attending).
We could've used IRC for that, true, but try getting people to use IRC these days.

"Unlike Twitter, we true sewer systems actually perform a useful function for society", the letter stated.
When asked to suggest an alternate term to describe Twitter, the spokesperson offered "festering shithole".

I think I can see their future.
Much smaller, with way less staff at lower salaries. They'll cater to small number of paying customers who still value it as means of information dissemination. Mostly newsrooms and their state/party sources. They'll get way more serious about walling it off to non-members, but it'll be a fairly useless effort because their paying members will be dullards with poor impulse control, just as they are today.

This is one reason I never understood why that pokemon app didn't get more scrutiny when everybody was so enamored with it. The app accesses all of the info on your phone, camera, mic, video, location and contacts (everybody clicks "yes"). So, you think you're looking for pokemon. What you're doing is giving them your exact location, as well as what you're looking at. So you can find stupid animals.
So, they get to map out every damned building in the country, and figure out the floor plans. Hospitals, schools, tech firms, federal buildings, you name it. What happens when an Army private is sitting around bored on watch? He starts looking for pokemon. Doesn't matter if it's a secure location, but now they know the layout for the admin building at "X" base. And, how many feet/inches it is to the depot or cafeteria.
Scary shit.

The destructiveness of the democrat party is now exposed to all as the effects of democrat policies are now in full view of voting Americans...some will have been red pilled (alas, most lefties resist the red-pilling, but some take it.)
Bloated local governments are facing unheard of revenue shortfalls. Layoffs will have to follow.

Part of the problem with Hollywood is that they do spend too damned much on FX.
I remember the remake of Gone in 60 Seconds...the original was done on a shoestring, and had a better story and presentation. The remake had the Mustang just like four football fields, just stupid.
They would be better off giving a guy 7 mil and ask them to make the next Star Wars.
Disney is completely fucked in the head, they gave billions upon billions to Kathleen Kennedy and she turned out the worst films ever made, imo of course.

It's okay-ish. I don't regret watching it. But it's way different. No Stack-like narrator. Each episode is an hour and covers one case. Only a couple of them offer genuine mysteries, I think. The others may be "unsolved" is some technical sense but are obvious enough. One episode is UFO-related and could not be more boring. First episode is the strongest. So if you watch it and it's not your cuppa, abandon ship.

The Leftist do this and more and moreover they really mean it. They use it to coordinate domestic terror activity and as a freaking medium for speech and thought control and public pressure on opponents.
The double standard is unacceptable, and hopefully that's why they're having trouble. If the rule is "no death threats and no incitements to violence" then fine. But that isn't the rule. It's only a rule if you're on the wrong ideological plane.

but looking at what is allegedly "trending" on a given day, it's
obviously manipulated, so why wouldn't it be manipulated a certain
direction for $$$?

Yeah, seeing what is 'trending' is complete bullshit.

Certainly. the problem is as always, the inconsistency and blatant partisan tilt of how its enforced and the rules are written. Animal Farm was meant to be a warning, not a textbook.

Right. Apparently whoever is wielding their banhammer is too clueless to understand the use of metaphor and exaggeration.

He always was, just also really bummed. I'm glad to see the goofy fun outweigh the bummed in his life

Anybody else read that PDT called Fuglyfoot in Chicago and got her/him/it to back down about fed agents?
I don't think she has a choice. I read today agents can go after anyone threatening a federal building even if they're blocks away and it sounds like they might use the Rico act to go after gangs. 117,000 gang members divided into 55 gangs with several hundred gang conflicts daily according to Second City Cop.

Second of all, you probably shouldn't offer two nickels unless you're in Nevada. There are laws about trading money for sexual favors.
Third, and most importantly: this is probably a smoke screen. Notice that he says they'll be trying some things later this year? What else happens "later this year?" The election.
They are going to monkey around with the election as much as they can. Under the guise of advertising revenue. The bannings thus far are just the tip of the iceberg.

This wave of social media is about done ruined as much by owners who want to be political kingmakers as by much of the user base who are sociopaths.
It's reminiscent of the CB radio about a year after the craze hit. Even those who once enthused about it became bored, jaded, even annoyed. Nothing interesting ever really happened on CB or Twitter so why spend the time?

Show us.
Show one that blacklists Dems.
Show us ones that fakes anti-Dem "trendings" until they are established.
Show us one that stigmatizes and bans Dem-biased "journalism."
So we can be educated.
Not because we believe in those things.
So we can test libertarian "theory."

I've got it on my "Steve Earle" channel, and it's Steve, Waylon, John Anderson, John Prine, and more, but . . .
. . . "Free" means ads, and with fucking Pandora, all the ads are BLM spoken by a WOC with, of course, a non-white accent.
