The claim is a major departure for the service, which has long been known as a destination for posting short snippets of text.

Oh look a very current situation that affects technology but ohhhh noooo it happens to mention Elon Musk (you know, a dude who affects technology) now we get to listen to grown people cry and whine because they just cant stand that this guy exists and affects technology in a very real way. I dont like the dude either but I do like technology news which this and most of his decisions end up being a part of. Cry harder somewhere else almost every other comment is like "just cover your eyes and go la la la la la and he doesnt exist or influence technology anymore lets just ignore him!" Christ

If you call killing Twitter, creating a disaster car no one wants to ride, and pretending to be the only company working with brain chips "affecting technology in a real way", then yeah sure have your day.

If you don't want to hear shit being said about Musk, I suggest you go somewhere else to another platform known for sucking his ass.

and don't get me started on the tunnel... I think it's people like you who don't want to accept that Musk assspam is a total fucking failure with no net contribution to society

Their comment is very confusing, but I think they're complaining about other people complaining about seeing Elon headlines. Meaning, we might all agree here.
