Naw.
I'm not willing to use it even while it's still free, so no. Mastodon FTW
Anytime there is a pole, I will vote yes.
But I am totally not going to do it.
Charging for the platform is a sure fire way to make it disappear. I hope Twitter disappears.
I suspect this will backfire, as usual.
this is never going to happen unless musk looks for a reason to shut xitter down. like so many times before he's talking out loud what he's thinking right now, creating a massive migrane among the guys still running the site and everyone who is financially invested in it.
lol
Absolutely not.
Theoretically, if I could pay for a Twitter, with Twitter's reach, without Twitter's rage-creation algorithm, without any links to ad companies, I might perhaps do it. But I believe Musk is mainly offering just the very first thing from that list.
Given I don't use it now and it's free, I don't think making it paid is suddenly going to incentivise me to do so
