DeSantis’s campaign has been plauged by technical issues, as Twitter Spaces cannot support the same kind of streaming traffic that Twitch / Youtube / etc. etc. can support. This means that DeSantis’s big online launch party was ruined due to reliance upon Twitter.
This is closer to what I predict and expect to happen. Twitter’s bones are solid, Twitter was (emphasis on WAS) one of the best run technology stacks ever back in 2020 or 2019. It will take a lot of effort before that falls apart. Any “legacy” code is likely good.
But you know what’s likely to break? New features, new loadouts, and random changes that the new ignorant staff cannot manage. Its one thing to maintain a good website, its a totally different thing to make new features. (Especially when the feature is to get rid of blue checkmarks, I mean to turn old blue-checkmarks into grey checkmarks, I mean allow a $8/month payment for blue checkmarks, I mean to delete old blue-checkmarks from people who haven’t moved onto the payment scheme, I mean…)
Technology is about change. Eventually, Twitter cannot change and get updated. Its already happened this year, Twitter Spaces is proof of that. All the new crap this year has fallen flat on its face.
