Elon Musk is finally killing Twitter off and rebranding the platform as "X", a move that represents yet another blow to the Immigration Information Ecosystem.
I suppose that communities of policy specialists will eventually re-gather on a platform that will emerge as the successor to Twitter. But can we envision a world where a social media platform like the old Twitter is re-imagined as a cooperative enterprise, rather than something vulnerable to the whims of an erratic billionaire?
I feel the exact same way. I would like a more cooperative platform that still retains the critical mass energy that Twitter used to have. Having a public square that is owned and controlled by an individual or corporation is never going to be a real public square. I'm not sure where we go from here.
