A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this comes down to Elon having fired the entirety of the Twitter payments team.

Hi,

This is REDACTED, a random Twitter user.

Would you like to comment on this story, or do you still auto-reply with a poop emoji?

They for real responded with a poop emoji? Can you post a screenshot?

[–] Dee_Imaginarium 4 points 1 year ago

They've been doing that for a while, there were a lot of articles about it when Twitter first set that up. But this person has a screenshot from today for you.
