MODERATORS
As much as people here laugh - because yes, I get that it's very unlikely to work - I actually think this would be better for users than the ad-based model most social media use now.
I think it would be better because it will die out in a month
Who says they would get rid of ads?
If it were a new platform and somebody wanted to try that I'd at least watch what happens, but Musk has burned through too much credability.
