I appreciate that I get like a hundred Elon Bucks a month for my terrible posting habit here, but it's pretty hard to deny that turning Twitter into a revenue-sharing scheme has absolutely decimated the quality of the site.

This is a great complement to @X's community notes system, which results in less “reach” (thus monetization) for content annotated as inaccurate. You don't need a Ministry of Truth to incentivize truth online.

If you are making any money at all on X, read this important post and be super-careful as to what “combat” videos you post.

Thank you Nikita — my country is currently under fire, and we are defending very fiercely to protect innocent people. This policy will help reduce misleading information and kill false propaganda.

X Is taking steps to prevent the posting of AI combat videos. Great. There is so much fake news out there and it's hard to tell what is real and what is AI these days.

StopAntisemitism is happy to help you get started @nikitabier - all of these accounts are sharing AI-assisted Gaza images. The truth? None of them are actually in Gaza as they claim. - @Mahayasir248909: based in Poland -@MahmoudAbed_sm: based in the Netherlands -

Now just expand it to the large monetized accounts who do nothing but post stolen content and made up claims and we would have a decent platform again.

the actual solution to all this is 1) turn off monetization (get a real job) and 2) make geo-filters a thing so people can block third world dumps from polluting their timelines
