Of course, it was automatically turned on

Let’s fix this

Ah, much better. My job of being added to the stats of “f*ck this” is complete.

      I am too, except that would probably get him sued by half of Twitter if vulnerable users could suddenly be swamped by calls from verified buttholes. He still has time to make more bad decisions though.

      Unless you’re interested in content that isn’t on Lemmy (which, let’s face it, is most content), or unless you’re interested in following people not on Mastodon (which, let’s face it, is most people), which includes my congressional representatives, Nobel prize winners, recognized experts in their fields, etc etc etc.

      If you’re not using it that’s totally fine and I respect it, but to say there’s no reason is just ignorant.

        You’re the one bitching and outraged by it. I prefer to not have my location tracked, or my daily activities exposed to the kinds of people investing in Twitter. You signed up for this, you get what you deserve at this point.

          The funny part about this is that I came here to Lemmy, where I encounter more negative, ignorant nonsense in my everyday use than I ever have on Twitter. Some of you need to get over yourselves.

          Not really outraged about it, just informing the community that on the same day that Musk was exposed as having scrubbed the Maine shooter’s account, he also conveniently rolled out this new feature that I turned off in a few seconds and have moved on from. Also pointing out that it’s poorly thought out, not really enraged. Twitter isn’t an issue for me because I’ve managed my account in such a way that I’m wholly unaffected by all the things you’re mad about. I’m not getting tracked by anything outside of Twitter because I mostly use it in Firefox containers with uBlock and Twitter account autoblockers. You, in fact, are the one bitching and ranting now. And you can continue being this mad because it’s entirely pointless and amusing for me. Meanwhile, we’re both currently using a platform whose software was written by people with politics just as objectionable as what’s on Twitter. You can pat yourself on the back for dubious superiority, but that’s all you’re doing.

    Also, poorly thought out, because if you want it on, you can’t choose to allow only audio calls or only video calls. It’s both or neither. So hearing impaired individuals cannot block audio-only calls if they always want video to help with lipreading etc, and people who might use audio calls but would block video calls for anonymity can’t do that either.
