    Feels like all social media is being strained for a reason and the free flow of information is at the center of it.

    Twitter and Reddit actions are also in line with suppression of content farm bots and data scrapers.

    The internet and social media landscape is changing forever, and it will keep on doing so! hang on tight :)

      Rich people want to influence elections and the easiest way is to destroy Social media, especially those where more left leaning voters congregate.

      Yep! All social media sites can see the bombshell that is LLM’s, and they’re working to try and create their own applications behind the scene, or at the very least monetize their datasets for usage by the likes of OpenAI. There’s a LOT of money in that space right now!
