   Twitter's official developer account tweeted about the API changes that were planned to be active Valentine's day.

   TLDR; The cutover to the updated API has been extended by "a few more days".

     #ElonMusk created a special system for showing you all his tweets first

     After his #SuperBowl tweet performed statistically worse than President #Biden's, Musk ordered major changes to the #algorithm.

     Biden's tweet, in which he said he would be supporting his wife in rooting for the #PhiladelphiaEagles, generated nearly 29 million impressions. Musk also tweeted support for the Eagles, generated around 9.1 million impressions before deleting the tweet in frustration.

     #Twitter announced that it would become the #weed-friendliest social platform & start allowing some previously restricted cannabis #ads to appear in the feeds of users in states that have legalized it.

     Weed delivery services could be #advertising on Twitter feeds soon.

     This new policy sets Twitter apart from other ad giants like #Meta, which bans both CBD and THC ads, #Google, which allows some CBD ads but bans #marijuana ads, including instructional content.

     #Cannabis

     Twitter is just showing everyone all of Elon’s tweets now

     For many of still using Twitter its "For You" section is full of tweets and replies to tweets from Elon Musk.

     Not everyone is getting the Elon-first feed, but on Monday afternoon, more than a few people noticed something was different.

     Want to Delete Your Twitter DMs? Good Luck With That
     People in Europe are making GDPR requests to have their private messages erased, but Elon’s team is ignoring them.
