Could be worse. They could be putting that money towards their own fediverse.
Right wing stooges are too dumb to contribute to open source projects. They steal the code and then let it languish.
TFG’s Truth Social is using Mastodon code.
What I was referencing with re stolen code. They use mastodon and pleroma as a shitty fork.

Well good. Clowns should congregate in a circus, it keeps them off the streets and out of our hedges and sewers.
It’s funny cause they need the audience to “trigger” that Twitter/X has, just going on Truth Social or a bespoke political site doesn’t provide that. If X had no libs they wouldn’t wanna be on it cause it would be boring.
Let the scam artist part them from their money if they’re dumb enough to defend him and fund him.
Elon finally found his people. The MAGA poverty level white Christian who hates everything that gives them that rush of energy, because their life otherwise barely has a pulse.
Murder by words, my goodness.
Stop elonposting ugh my blocked list is getting so long

Currently nine more people care then don’t. It seems like maybe numbers aren’t your strong suit maybe you should stick to other stuff…
They each pledge a single drop of water in a ten gallon clay pot that Musk smashed with a hammer.
Beautiful analogy
Imagine pledging to get enough money to bail out someone who can literally masturbate and squirt $44B on a whim.
Bootlickers, he doesn’t need you. Really.
Get ready for My Pillow ads on Xitter, formally known as shitter.

My only question is do we pronounce the “x” in xitter like “x” would be pronounced in a Chinese word? “Sh-itter”?
I pronounce it Twitter and will continue to dead name the website for as long as Musk dead names his trans child.
I will never call it “X” just because it’s too fucking stupid. But your reason is a good one too. Plus it seems to get under Musk’s skin if you call it twitter.
I mean that goes without saying too lol
That’s my camp as well. But I’m willing to call it shitter when necessary. :D
Twatter works fine for me in that regard lol
Yes, it is pronounced Shitter, and Tweets are now Toots.
X-creets
Yea I always used “Xcreations”. Nothing but shit anyways…
Tweets are now Sharts!
Do NOT associate Mastodon stuff with that shit
What term constituted “mastodon stuff” to prompt your comment? Haven’t yet tried mastodon so just curious.
A guy pledged a bunch of money to the creator of Mastodon if he named the posts “toots”. So the name stuck and Mastodon got a bunch of server and development funds.
Toots
I just pronounce it as ten.
That’s how I’ve been doing it.
Well, if the right-wing influencers like him so much, why don’t they pay for keeping Xitter alive?
Most of them can’t spare the money due to paying for lawyers.
So, as “if” is out of the question, “when” and “how” are becoming more interesting.
How will twitter end? Will he sell it to someone else? or just fire everyone and close the doors?
“Sell it to who Ben? Fucking aquaman?”
X-Men, it’s in the name. :D (also: Great reference!)
Oh wow Andrew Tate is one of them.
Gee, when you look at all these manbaby assholes who cry about being canceled, one thing starts to stand out. They’re all manbaby assholes. Maybe if every canceled person is a manbaby asshole, then getting cancelled is actually about not liking manbaby assholes? And not about killing freedom of speech? It’s just… the pattern is undeniable.
This is the most simp-y shit I’ve ever heard of. You don’t bail out a billionaire.
I really hate the term “simp” but it really fits here. Having legions of people pledging scraps of cash to literally the wealthiest personon Earth is just so… pathetic.
Yeah I generally avoid that word, but this is nearly textbook.
They’d just be burning the money anyway.
The US government does it consistently.
Cause the politicians simp for billionaire donations
And it’s the simpyest shit I’ve ever seen
United Simps of Conservative America
It’s conservatroids trying to show that they have economic power too. They have big spending companies too! Like Babylon Bee! Yeah! Take that, libs!
Lol. Also, I’ve run ads on Twitter and it was a waste of money. Facebook ads work 100x better. Reddit was awful too. So these dicks are just pissing money away. After all - there’s a reason they weren’t already big spending advertisers on Twitter: because it sucks.
This is actually a good thing! Let them all bundle up together and maybe they can fund and start his little society on mars and he can take all the right wing cunts with him. Then they can go cry about women and minorities together without bothering the rest of us.
start his little society on mars
“The system destroying the Earth will actually do the opposite on Mars!”
Yup, and then the Earth can start to heal.
Let those fuckers live in their delusions about rebuilding human civilization without check notes everyone is literally help run society such as trades people, medical professionals, agriculture workers, social workers, etc.
Capitalism always needs the frontier or at least the mythology of it, Mars is kind of that right now.
They’ll probably do the indentured servant thing like, “now that you’re here, we just need a couple things done before you can get that free real estate.”
But who are they going to bully, if they’re just among themselves?
Oh you must be new. There’s always an “in group” and an “out group”. If somehow everyone is in the “in group” the rules change to create a new “out group”.
I would love to see them infighting to determine who is going to be the next out group.
Happens all the time. Recently Republicans were calling the speaker of the house “secretly a democrat” because he acknowledged that his adopted black son has difficulties his white sons won’t have to deal with.
They can start their own handmaid’s tale on Mars. Let’s see how many women they can get to join these super manly men.
They can have him, I don’t want him; he’s too (everything horrible) for me.
