The issues with Twitter are currently about Musk buying it at ridiculous price and his personal antics. Other than that, it works fine as always.
They shipped quite a bit of stuff, like the blue tick or revenue sharing. Other than Musk courting fascist and other kind of undesirables, twitter as a product is doing fine. It might go under though, but if that happens isn't going to happen because lack of employees.
Have you used twitter before the musk takeover? That's exactly what you are describing. At worst, nothing changed. At best, in my experience, the spam problem has somehow gotten better. Much less spam accounts below every single post like how it used to be.
I still think layoffs are bad because I don't care about corporate profit or efficiency to be honest, but in this case it's a bit surprising how nothing concrete has actually changed even with 80% reduction in staffing. 80% sounds apocalyptical to me but again, twitter just works like it did before. With the same annoying, never fixed bugs (occasional "something went wrong" on clicking tweets, etc) . But again, nothing close to the (technical) train wreck I would expect.

No, they're still there. They're even more there on popular posts.
A strange thing is that they never seem to ban the onlyfans bots, but they do hide them under "more replies" - so if you habitually expand that, you just keep seeing the same ones everywhere.

That's not too surprising, because what the other people were doing was changing stuff. So now they're gone, things won't change, ever.
