The Twitter format is one of several ways we’ve found people can replace the tea party (that is, the general style of soirée, not the political movement in the US, nor the act of mischief in Boston leading up to the US Revolutionary War). Granted, we have to buy our own snacks, but we save on the commute across town.

So as another part of the X Titanic sinks below the depths, it is news for anyone else trying to build their alternative, for-profit or otherwise.
Considering we now are looking at context-aware LLMs, I wonder if they could make a smarter moderation system that lets users know when they used a hate dog whistle (perhaps, inadvertently) and here’s an alternative phrasing that circumvents the dog whistle.
