"Over the weekend, a glitch on the platform meant that the site removed pictures and links on posts made before December 2014. The posts showed broken links instead of the pictures and videos that were previously there.

Several users noticed the glitch, with the technologist Tom Coates among those pointing it out. Coates referred to the glitch as “epic vandalism by Musk” and suggested it could be a cost-saving exercise."

      At best, I think it could be an actual plan of his, he was pissed when he was forced to buy Twitter after backing out, real pissed.

      Maybe now he’s intentionally destroying it as a way to destroy the accomplishments of those he was forced to buy it from, but he’s doing it in a way that won’t land him in legal trouble for intentionally destroying it.

      I would believe it if it turned out to be true, but at the same time, he could simply be an extremely incompetent, super ultra mega wealthy idiot. I dunno.

        No idea, they think he’s some king of genius meme lord. I take every opportunity to make fun of them for it when they start talk about him.
