Twitter is extremely creepy these days because 90% of the responses are bots and it’s not exactly clear why. Usually it’s not even political, it’s not selling anything, it’s just bots pretending to be people. The vibe is like boarding a city bus and realizing none of the passengers have faces

1. Set up fake companies.
2. Have a huge ad spend on the platform which you own.
3. Write that off against tax you owe.
But yeah, Twitter gives "dead internet theory" vibes more and more lately
absolutely insane
Also, it's more logical to me than Instagram - I couldn't ever figure that one out, what to do with it.
The algorithm did NOT care that I was reporting that crap as p*rn, just kept finding more of it 2 show me! 😣🤢
Sorry, I mean the "disruption"
none of this is sustainable in the long run, I shouldn't think.
Businesses can also cross reference what real engagement looks like by comparing against other platforms
Been off Twitter to long to remember if there are ads, but each bot is likely driving thousands of ad impressions if so.
This is Leon paying to promote a viewpoint, just like he is boosting the stock price for him and DJT. It is a gamble in a effort to give us white nationalism!
Is that not what city busses are supposed to be like
That's why they also copy other ppl comments... if they hit the jackpot, they receive a lot of impressions, which also gives the bots some money -notice how the bots also have TT premium-
The bots are in low AML jurisdictions and are paid for to ramp up the engagement of those who pay for them to get cleaned money via X.
I went back briefly, posted one question, and all of a sudden there are bots with <100 followers responding to everything I've posted (usually to insult me or say something terfy on a post that had nothing to do with trans rights)
you can buy accounts for polls and follows etc
its terrible
its said on all main media humans now are only 38%
I know several PhDs, Biology
and they just interact with science posts
so they have very little garbage in their timelines
which explains why, very sadly, most of PhD biology is still on X
#genomics #DNA
Most annoying are the adverts, for stuff you've never heard of, just block (and repeat)
I'm glad I'm not on Twitter anymore.
accurate
also very creepy😒
At 1-5 bots every single day.
I suppose I could have just let them be and I would have ended up with close to 1k followers by the time I moved to Bsky.
Oh dang. 😜
Weirder still my collection of cool and weird people are just kinda keeping on.
More selective now with any SM to clean up TL.
If the bot interactions are a way to test and train the AI algorithms

Fake news, fake events, fakeness everywhere on major platform.
Many innocents will get cancelled for fake "evidence" of their "wrongdoings".
Fabricated lies becoming the truth.
Bots trying to domelection interference are too obvious if they weren't first pretending https://to.be real people.
