Twitter owner promises to abide by the results of the poll, less than two months after appointing himself CEO
that he had already picked a new CEO, saying: “No one wants the job who can actually keep Twitter alive. There is no successor.”announced that it would remove accounts that offered “free promotion of certain social media platforms”.to affect only accounts whose “primary purpose is promotion of competitors, which essentially falls under the no spam rule”.
The platform earlier said the move would affect content from numerous social media websites, including Meta Platforms’ Facebook and Instagram, Mastodon, Truth Social, Tribel, Nostr and Post, but would allow cross-content posting.The announcement came on Sunday – the same day that Musk tweeted photos from the Lusail Stadium in Qatar, where he watched Argentina beat France on penalties to win the men’s football World Cup.
On the initial policy change, the Twitter Support account said: “We recognise that many of our users are active on other social media platforms. However, we will no longer allow free promotion of certain social media platforms on Twitter.” It gave examples of content that would be removed including “follow me @username on Instagram” and “check out my profile on Facebook – facebook.com/username”.
It added: “We still allow cross-posting content from any social media platform. Posting links or usernames to social media platforms not listed above are also not in violation of this policy.”, who recently invested in Nostr, replied to the Twitter support post with one word: “Why?” In a reply to another user posting about the Nostr promotion ban, Dorsey said it “doesn’t make sense”.
