Twitter is constantly stating that it is silencing and deleting accounts from their website (I'm not talking about only trump here) because they are constantly promoting violence and hate speech, well what about the THOUSANDS of post that misidentified David Quintavalle as the person who killed a cop at the capital raid? Why aren't some of these "big time" (blue checkmark) twitter users being removed from the platform who have literally destroyed this mans live? What in the F** is wrong with you clowns at twitter? Do you have no decency? The idiots who run this social media platform are worse than a teenager when it comes to hypocrisy.

People cannot find your channel any more when you are shadow banned. I just discovered myself and my whole family are shadowbanned and our accounts can only be seen when the following box is unckecked.
"Hide sensitive content
This prevents Tweets with potentially sensitive content from displaying in your search results. Learn more"

It was shocking to see that I could not find my wife's account, which only showed up when that box was unchecked. Similarly she could not find mine. Oh well Elon, your loss. We won't be using your Platform. You're no better than the last lot.

Twitter is primarily concerned with itself. That's how I feel following the treatment I've received. Yes, I am responsible for the tweets, but I was unaware that they needed to be sent privately, and I was quite busy with business at the time. I've sent them numerous times, requesting that they delete a couple of photographs and wording that are both unprofessional and embarrassing to my family. Even though I have an Apple computer, Twitter is of no use to me. I however found out about a team at their alienmanhackers xyz and contacted them at alienmanh4cck@ proton mail com. They were able to help me take down the post at a cost in less than 48hours which was something i could not do contacting and sending mails to twitter countless number of times.

The president of the United States can say whatever he wants on Twitter including putting down a woman's looks calling out people as Liars when he has no proof of that trying to start nuclear war and I get banned for life because I said Lindsey Graham needs to go lay on a fainting couch

I dislike that it won't let me unfavorite some of my older favorites.

I like that I can keep up-to-date on whatever I want. Ex) Follow nytimes for news, whitehouse for politics, and officialcharice to see what the singer's up to.

The rebranding is unnecessary and just proves yet again what narcissistic man-child Musk is. The site looks illegal and there is no brand creativity/individuality with his stupid X obsession. Rich people have no common sense and ruin absolutely everything they touch because they can only think of their benefits and to monetize eerything they get theur hands on. I will never update the app.

A really sad social networking site for people with no friends. It's great for sharing short news/links but 90% people on twitter are either braindead/self-absorbed/stupid fantard tweens/ghetto black people. I set up my twitter account just to see what's all the fuss about it. I never use it anymore because it's pretty much mundane and most of my friends I followed were my real life friends anyway. There were occasionally some lulzworthy celebrity breakdown but some of these celebs are irrelevant anyway. Conclusion: Don't bother to sign-up.

If you are Conservative don't waste you time twitter will silence you and Suspend you account for No reason permanently and when you try to find out why they just won't respond lie say you are a Bot when clearly you not just a Excuse to silence Us. I wanted to think it was just me but several of my friends accounts have been locked permanently as well I think it time for a class action law suit against these Forums

Didn't realize how controlled Twitter is - definitely government overreach.
Twitter is more for the 'woke' crowd who are overly sensitive to the truth or any opinion that is different from their own. I told someone to "go jump off a bridge' - mentioned literally- most people are smart enough to know that expression is to show strong feeling while not being true. Off course Twitter police look for an excuse to remove someone if you are not speaking government propaganda. This kind of censorship makes it difficult to have genuine discussion, meaningful discussion. The censorship has closed down debate and those that have something of relevance to say have drifted away from Twitter or have been shut down by Twitter 'police'. After joining Tumblr - tumblr platform is like a breath of fresh air.

What I have seen which is expressed by others is that their administration is poor - no one to talk too - to understand why account is suspended. Like they hide from the clients because they don't know how to talk with people. I included snapshot of the admin garbage I get from Twitter (my account was set up with phone # not email) but Twitter program not smart enough to know this! Keeps prompting me for email not phone number-So I can't reconnect or do anything! This is either bad programming or deliberate.

Anyway Twitter is too much work to give anymore time too. Engaging with others is suppose to be fun and interesting not work. So went to another platform.

100% garbage. Still better than nazibook. Free speech is still a no at XTwatter. And its basically garbage humans ranting at other village idiots.
Avoid. Waate of time.

Twitter, you need to really keep up with the Jones's. Weibo, the Chinese twitter, now allows for eCommerce WITHIN the post. How did you let this pass you by? How did you let a chance at monitization pass and not even chase after.

Weibo, please come to English and dominate twitter.

Twitter banned me just for saying I hope Julian Assange rots in jail. It allows Trump to say much worse so I am lead to believe Jack and his company support Trump's nationalist views and go after no bodies who's followers don't even read their tweets.

They shadowban people who use any words that are positive to the LGBTQA+ community. There is no agenda for people in that community other than not being attacked for who they are. Elon does not support freespeech for all, he supports hateful people who rather a trans person kill themselves than get the help they need (gender-affirming care).

Tried logging into my account and it said my account didn't exist. Contacted Twitter support and they said in order to verify it's my account I had to tweet from my account. I explained I couldn't because I couldn't log in! They then said they wouldn't help because they couldn't verify my account and closed my support ticket. I paid literally thousands of dollars to build my following and my Twitter was driving traffic to my store. Now what? Trash company filled with trash people. This is why people hate Twitter.

Why does Twitter have promoted ads policy, when they don't even follow it?

As I have lost count the large number of promoted ads I have got, even those I am not a targeted audience and cannot use what is being offered.

For example how can I use business services or products when I don't own a business, how can I use services or products for a say the medical field when I don't even work in that field or why do I get information on trading when I am not interested in trading in fact I have no money to the trade.

After watching what happened in 2020 presidential election, I decide to deactivate my Twitter account because it suppresses people's true voice in America. Its action is unacceptable!
