Don't understand most of that, but I can assure you that the shadow bans are still "on and off on and off".
YA only get banned for a REASON.
Yep, they know and they're working on it. The Twitter devs and the good folks forking it on GitHub.
Yeah, I do. Everything he's done in the last couple of months is good... Things that make Twitter a more reliable and neutral place. Baby steps, but still steps in the right direction.You have a lot of faith, Num.

Twitter is supposed to be -- Musk wants it to be -- a communications and information tool. Not a propaganda shill machine like Facebook that floods your feed with shit, while blocking you in a bubble.
The Twitter algorithm being released on Github is pretty mind-blowing. Don't expect other companies like Facebook or TikTok to do the same, it would be inconceivable. That algorithm is the platform's DNA, it's usually jealously guarded and full of secrets. Musk wants to go neutral and gain people's trust by doing this, which works.
Even though they didn't mention shadowbans in a little while, there has to be stuff about it in the algorithm, so I believe someone will find and fix it eventually.
