Here is the uncomfortable truth: almost all social activity is unnecessary. Most people prefer to have a bit of it in their lives though.
Being able to easily communicate globally is an incredible feat of technology.
You kids don't know you're born.....
You're just the kind of dev they like.
They've proved that they'll try and shaft you as soon as they can get away with it.
Your answer is to give them another go but give yourself loads more work by abstracting their api behind a shim so you aren't tied to it.
Can you switch the game engine once your game is out, if they apply their fees retroactively like they were talking about?
how come they didn't take 100% down? Of the goverment notices sent to Twitter about 40% resulted in action being taken. Is it genuinely censorship when Twitter have the final decision, and in more cases than not ignored the governments requests?
This doesn't sound like a jack boot on the face, more like a polite request in the inbox.....
Conservative: I have been censored for my conservative views
Me: Holy shit! You were censored for wanting lower taxes?
Con: LOL no...no not those views
Me: So....deregulation?
Con: Haha no not those views either
Me: Which views, exactly?
Con: Oh, you know the ones

If you want a little bit of challenge in what you're watching then maybe a bfi or mubi subscription would get you the variety you're looking for. If you're paying for Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney then you're part of the problem you're moaning about.
The owner of the property is allowed to decide who uses it. If you're in my house and you want to shout racist abuse at passers by I'm perfectly within my rights to tell you to fuck off.
Twitter is supposed to be a business. How is driving most of the customers away helping the bottom line?

El Reg looked very hard to try and find someone who would say this idea wasn't bollocks.
Well done.
No really, well done. You're willing to throw away the credibility you once had to keep the bigots on side.
Hmm, or more likely pointed you towards one that looks like the others but is slightly changed in an arbitrary way.
It's not like Truth is important to the LLM, it just wants to show you what it thinks you've asked for.
I don't get it, am I wrong about how these things work or are all the fanboys fucking delusional?
Of course, poor Google are nobly trying to get the very best ads they can possibly have in front of our faces and evil advertisers forced them to collate all the data into privacy busting user profiles.
Pity the poor Chocolate Factory, what else could it do?

Both of those were pretty successful before they fell out of fashion. Flash was the interactive internet for a good couple of years before JS took off. So you're saying you expect this tech to be pretty successful before it is inevitably superseded?
He didn't xeet, he tweeted a tweet. When they start serving all their content from x domains and not twitter domains then maybe it's time to start calling it X. Currently X is just a graphic on twitter.com, while other content is served from twimg.com. There's no X in either of those domains.
He's super rich and he can do what he likes.
We don't all have to go along with him.
