A look at T2, a Twitter alternative founded by a former employee of Google's Area 120 to offer a “2007 Twitter” vibe that Musk's platform no longer supplies
Cofounder Gabor Cselle says his upstart social network can offer a “2007 Twitter” community vibe that Elon Musk's platform no longer supplies. Tweets: @martinsfp , @pt , @gabor , @stevenlevy , and @chrismessina Tweets: @martinsfp : Hmm. I wish it well, but whatever replaces Twitter will not be a nostalgia trip. https://twitter.com/... Parker / @pt : This seems like the smart bet, but when I consider what I like about Twitter, it comes down to the core interaction model. I think that's why it's been so resilient to very good competition. They nailed the essence of an interest graph oriented around people & never changed it. https://twitter.com/... Gabor Cselle / @gabor : WIRED's @stevenlevy wrote about T2 this morning! The title is perhaps a bit more aggressive than I'd like it to be, but the piece captures our approach. https://www.wired.com/... Steven Levy / @stevenlevy : Of the many startups trying to build a Twitter alternative, T2 is notable for most wanting to be like....OG Twitter. I sit down w @gabor to get the low down. https://www.wired.com/... @chrismessina : Outing myself as the “one user” who likened T2 to “a quiet gathering on a large lawn with wine served and a hushed din as guests arrive.” 🍷 https://t2.social/... Nice write up by @StevenLevy! https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
