I may be wrong, but I read that Musk taking over Twitter has vastly increased the people using it.

Advertisors will never ignore such a large group of eyeballs.

They’re all pulling out ... The big ones Disney, Apple, etc.

The situation is critical from what I heard

Re: Tesla. They’re launching new products this week I think

Good timing!

It's not just a large group of eyeballs, it's a potentially massive group that the Propaganda Media and the shady companies like Google/Alphabet and Fakebook don't want to advertise to.

Elon Musk needs to have the programmers at X add advertisers where tweet viewers, both registered and unregistered, can select and de-select what types of ads they see. The depth and breadth of advertising would grow exponentially compared to woke agenda companies.

There's a market for "ads" that are really just notifications of new videos released by a webcaster.

There's a market for ads like the new Outlook app does where just two spam emails show up in your "Other" inbox, are deleted on exit, and are replaced with two new ones the next time you open the app.

I wouldn't mind seeing ads along the sides of a tweet that were tailored to me by my own choosing. Adding in anonymity for non-subscribers would increase the ad capabilities and users would welcome them.

I don't want to see a single ad about the NFL, MLB, or any woke sports nonsense. I don't want to see ads for television shows or Hollywood movies. I don't want to see tourism ads for Canada. I don't want to see ads for programmable temperature mattress covers.

I did appreciate the add for the DailyWire's "Lady Ballers" movie. I wouldn't mind ads for LuckyGunner, Palmetto State Armory, Brownells, Dell Computers, tools, Sweetwater, Stewart-MacDonald, Warmoth guitars, upcoming concerts, automobiles by type (for example: RWD with a V-8), men's clothing, etc. I wouldn't mind ads for books by category.

It would be great to be able to click on a category and have ads show up. For example, I'm looking for a sharpening stone set. I wouldn't mind seeing ads for them up until I buy one and then be able to turn off that category until I decide to revisit it. Everything, from nearby carwashes, eateries, and computer software could be in the ad selection menu.

It would also be great to be able to share my category with others so that if it works for me, I can send a code to a friend who can select it and have similar ads come through for them.

I’m still banned on Twitter.

I wonder how many conservatives are still locked out...

Conservatives have come back - myself included. But the bots are gone, so the numbers may look a lot lower to advertisers than they (fraudulently) did under Dorsey.

Twitter elected Trump in 2016 - it's important, IMHO, for conservative influencers to go back to X. Preaching to the choir on Truth Social isn't going to win over any new voters.
