Whaha! Elon wants 3rd parties to pay for using the API for 3rd party apps and such

I think he doesn't really get it, he should pay THEM

@stux "Elon doesn't really get it" is true with many subjects

@jkb @stux I would even go as far as to say that’s true for most things. Except manufuctoring, he famously knows more about that than anyone currently alive.

@stux Not at all.

Also, desperate to monetize, so every use case looks like a “pay up!” opportunity.

@stux I honestly think he’s tanking it on purpose. Cutting his losses and thinking he won’t be held accountable.

@stux I suppose the justification is apps take Twitter's advertising revenue away and potentially derive their own revenue stream.

@stux He should. He probably won’t.

It’s likely this man was never serious about owning a social media website. Everything he’s done has harmed Twitter.

Maybe the billions spent just mean nothing. He has functionally infinite money. He isn’t ever worried about putting food on the table.

@Maxanadu_MX02 @stux Twitter is now a charity project. It’s never going to make profit again. Time will take care of it at some point lol

@stux hahahahaha 🤣🤣 like hell I'll pay for that

@stux they're just desperate for money at this point :birdsite:
