The stream could come this summer and is inspired by former fan-favorite Vine which launched the Ice Bucket Challenge in 2014.

Sources at X described it as a way to highlight the video content that users are sharing and creating and organize it under one tab. A beta version is expected to be available to a select group of users later this summer.
Maybe they could buy Vine?
For how much? $2?
Probably something closer to $30,000,000.
I'm still amazed that people like short-form video in the first place, but if TikTok exits the US market, which it sounds like they may, I suppose it'd be better to have a company enter the market. Don't really want the number of competitors to keep shrinking, if you're a consumer of that content.
Who on earth still uses Twitter? I don't know anyone
Dozens of people, dozens!
A good amount, a lot of the elite and people with social influence share information, while the people also share news pretty quickly.
I know will enough, some may be false or not confirmed, but helpers are always willing to call it out when they learn and try to share that knowledge with us.
They can do that, with the few overworked people remaining?
It seems they can.
Like all of Elon's companies, they will be overworked, and they will love it.
Hopefully, they will learn to unionize at some point.
Oops, deleted my old twitter account
Brilliant, love it!
