It’s much harder to get banned nowadays than it used to be.

I’m on my fourth userid on Twitter. I’ve managed to keep my current one for over two years.

I think they used to be more responsibe to tattletales than they are now.

Once I was banned for commenting on Sarah Huckabee’s weight…multiple times. Another time, I recieved repeated warnings over posting a contrarian opinion based on personal experience regarding a particular COVID topic. Admittedly, I got pissed after a warning, and I kept pushing the envelope. I dont recall specifically what I did, but it had to do with COVID, too.

Now, I dont think tattletales carry as much sway. Also, I think there are fewer people on X who are compelled to police others.
