   I am no longer verified on another website it seems.

   I don’t care really but I do sincerely hope he dies alone in space.

     @mattl meanwhile, if they had a decent ad platform he wouldn’t need to charge users.

     @pmarrone new owner is a dick

     I generally pay for most services I use. I couldn’t for a long time and for now I can, so I do.

     @pmarrone the owner changed. I dislike the new owner. Also the price changed from $3 to $7 or more.

     @mattl I meant specifically why you paid for twitter blue before but don’t want to now. What changes has the new owner made that made you feel that way?

     @mattl yeah it’s $8 now I believe. I never really liked twitter, but liked the old regime much less.

     @pmarrone huh. Why? The old regime didn’t make me feel bad.

     @mattl right that’s you, I was talking about me. And since I don’t know what you didn’t like I couldn’t really comment. But the old regime was decidedly worse from my point of view.

     @pmarrone sadly as a verified person I basically never worried about that. Not great but honest

     @mattl The speech policy was very inconsistent and stifling. I felt that it created an atmosphere where you never knew what you could get banned for. It seems like people were getting warning letters, if not outright banned, too easily. How can I have a conversation and express myself honestly when I never know when an algorithm will come and slap me with a punishment that I can’t appeal?

     @pmarrone I don’t think we should.

     But Libre.fm will push for solvency soon. Genuinely hope for your support.

     @mattl I mean I’m here so I don’t love twitter or anything. But on balance it’s a better environment to speak without fear of reprisals. Also, they were losing about $4 million a day. At the very least, we should expect companies to be solvent.
