So I have never used twitter so this may be a stupid question but if artists are making good money off twitter and they got a big audience there why wouldn't they pay it?

If they are not making money of twitter they can just link to some off site place as proof of identity.

>> No.6360469

if you saw this independent of the schoolyard chatter that went round, would you be so emotional and sensationalist? or would you look at it the same way you did youtube premium? "oh a huge website offering a nifty, optional premium option. no thanks". nothing's gonna change, mute those fucking clowns who hate Elon because he's rich and did whatever he wants with his money. him buying twitter is relatively proportional to you shopping for a $1k tablet in front of a homeless bum. "wow can't believe you're buying/investing in this for personal pleasure/business you should buy me a hot meal and a-" how about I do whatever the fuck I want with my money? "Oh but he could've stopped world hunger with the" him and thousands of other billionaires, and that dead meme's been debunked forever; if there is famine it isn't due to lacking funds it's purposely caused in warring countries. and if you care that much, sell your iPhone and go buy the niggers a sandwich

The big difference is when you buy a youtube premium sub it's an isolated thing that doesn't affect other users. Twitter is proposing prioritizing subscribers so you'll always see then first before anything else.
Musk himself said he wants it so if you're looking at the comics of a post, you'll have to scroll through every subscription post before you see any unsubbed people.

I don't think we're really going to know until another month or two when things settle down. This could either be actual cause for a mass migration (I hope) or a big nothing burger that people like to make a big fuss about but then nothing actually changes. I'm mostly betting on the second result, but I have a little hope that Elon himself bitching publicly that advertisers are dropping Twitter is a sign things are going downhill for the platform longterm.

This. Twitter was already an algorithm-throttling social media site with built-in and controlled biases.

That's why I use twitter, for better or worse. It's the one platform that is used widely by artists of every nationality, and I've gotten more interaction with professionals through twitter than any other site. It is tough to browse depending on the user, but amid all the photos or food and pets, they're also posting work in progress sketches you won't find on Pixiv. They're posting speedpaint videos. They're answering art questions. It's more than an art gallery.

There is a current lost generation who don't know how bad the internet has become because that is all they have ever known. I don't think banks and corporations have ever had this much power at any point in history. We are at a point now where even the people who provide the ground infrastructure of the internet are playing politics. Old/current twitter is one of the things that needs to be purged if the internet needs to survive even in the free state we know today. Allowing anybody to get the same service at an affordable price is a big step in the right direction.

Second, these same banks financed Elon's purchase of Twitter. They're already a part of this, and they're not going to screw themselves.
Third, if push comes to shove, you have to remember Musk literally started Paypal. He can start another service. Twitter can be its own processor. It can even start its own bank. In fact, this has to be the endgame for Elon's "X" project.

The people eager for tumblr are people who originate from tumblr. Theyre probably still bitter about the exodus from it in the first place but that place is a relic and an objectively bad platform for the modern age. Comment system is shit, searching for posts is shit, blog customization in browser is too flexible and not navigable half the time, follower counts are hidden, and of course porn will never be allowed back, all of which turns normies away. Noticing a lot of people are too young to remember just how hated tumblr was too. The reason twitter is so resented is because it's the spiritual successor to that self righteous activist cesspool.

That's what I've been thinking. People are jumping ship over a fire they've lit themselves. This checkmark could do great things as long as decent artists are patient enough to see it through. Plus the normie exposure sort of locks us to the site to begin with.

Jump to Tumblr if you want, but prepare to be fandom-locked to have any shot at growth.
Jump to Newgrounds if you want, but you'll be surrounded by 30-somethings that still get off to zone-toons and metal gear awesome.
Deviantart has been the walmart fetish store of artists for years, and it would take an unprecedented shift for that perception to change. Plus no way normies are moving over there.
Sites like pixiv, artstation, and itaku are nice, but again they don't have the exposure and are better suited for portfolio displays anyway. That purpose won't change.

This would have been a lot better if they just made an new checkmark, like "twitter gold" you pay 8 dollars a month to have a yellow shiny checkmark on your profile.
>no ads
>blue shiny checkmark.
That would be enough already. People would still have the blue checkmark, everyone is happy, no one is spreaking their asses.
But nooo, LETS JUST USE THE BLUE CHECKMARK AS A STANDARD INSTEAD AND EVERYONE THAT HAS IT WILL (NOT) BE SHADOWBANNED FOR LIFE LOL MONEY.

none of this would ever have been necessary if it weren't for cheating kikes and chinks that would try to game the algorithm in order to get their low quality shit on top. when something was low quality, it was immediately bitched out by the community with super sleuths that would discover the way they cheated was by mis-categorizing more niche genres and/or used sock puppets to boost their favs/likes. then the person's reputation would be driven to the ground, rightfully.

the community used to gatekeep this bullshit. now it's everywhere and we allowed big corps to change the algorithm to their desire and any idiot can charge a cancel campaign over something benign and not art-related like being racist or transphobic.

I agree, the things drawned on this board+ twitter are utter garbage only made to polute your brain. Again i am not one of those retardets of /ic/. i just draw birds stfu.

You sound really fucking annoying from the way you type. Post your work somewhere and stop bitching "it is only for attention seekers" how can i know if you are really good at art if "i do not post"? The only utility of art is to be seen. If you keep all your art to yourself, you are egoistic and estagnate since there is a limit for self critique.

Also you do not even need to visit this board if it "polutes your visual gallery" Just go /out/ for landscapes.

It's not about what he wants. The sole reason twitter allows porn in the first place is because Apple gave them special treatment, no other app is allowed this grace. All it takes is some pissed off CEO at apple to revoke those privileges. And by the looks of it very few people are fond of thr guy these days.
