No worries. Iāll get that deleted for you on Monday if thatās OK. Trying hard to not get drawn into work stuff over the weekend!
We are working on āpauseā and āsuspendā type options, but for now all I can do is permanent deletion. But, you should still be on the creation allowlist after that so you should still have the option to create something new if you wanted to.
Defo some great Retro Gaming stuff happening! Iāve been sharing a few finds in this one, since I picked up a PSP, PS Vita and modded Game Boy Advance recently (finally getting to play Oracle of Seasons!)
All sorted @thom_horne - let me know if you still see the ā+ā button when you go to twitter.com/i/communities? I just want to double check that deletion resets the creation limit (from 0 back to 1)
I hope the seemingly imminent hostile takeover by He Who Does Not Understand Anything does bode badly for Communities, given HWDNUA seems to want to throw out all the babies and start from scratch again with content moderation
āI also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans,ā
I donāt think he understands what heās saying. He wants to defeat spam bots, but also make the algorithms open source? Which means, you know, people who make the spam bots will be able to see how to get around the algorithms
Strange times. But yes I got stock grants. They were only slightly lower than Elonās offer, and theyāll be granted on the same vest schedule. Which is good because the number stays the same. But itās also bad becauseā¦the number stays the same. In the short term, when my next grant comes out, itās good, because the price had been lower before all of this happened. But obviously, when you get stock you hope that your hard work makes them go up over time.
I and many other employees have concerns, because we love our culture and hope that it wonāt change. But realistically, these deals take a long time to close and then even longer before meaningful change (for better or worse) gets enacted.
So, in the meantime, Iām just gonna keep showing up every day and doing my job to the best of my ability!
ā¦being acquired twice within six months must be some kind of record lol
Not sure this time around: as far as I understand it this is a private sale. Deals that take a long time are public sales/mergers, as regulatory stuff often takes a long time. But with Musk buying Twitter privately I do think regulators will be quite hands off. Wouldnāt surprise me if this was finished up rather quickly (not next week, obviously, but probably quicker than other sales/mergers of similar size).
Obviously how long it takes for āmeaningful changeā to get enacted - well, thatās anyoneās guess, but given Muskās personality I also feel that might be quite fast.
In summary I wouldnāt be surprised if Twitter went downhill quite quickly ā¦
