Elon's Twitter

This is for topical issues effecting our fair world... you can quit snickering anytime. Note: It is the desire of the leadership of SFDebris Conglomerate that all posters maintain a civil and polite bearing in this forum, regardless of how you feel about any particular issue. Violators will be turned over to Captain Janeway for experimentation.

Not really. On most public forums spam is deleted algorithmically and then by moderation.

I'm thinking of email. Is it called 'spam' when it's forum posts?

Like I said, this is why there will be little to no change in Twitter rules. "Free Speech" is just a buzzphrase Musk types use.

I see Tumblr dropped their nudity ban to attract people leaving Twitter.

The lewds ban is still kind of in limbo. They haven't even unblocked the search term Boobs yet.
