Hey folks -

The seemingly never-ending flood of Musk/Twitter news and commentary is getting to some of our users (and some of the mods, too), so we’ve decided to create a general Megathread for all things related to Elon Musk and X/Twitter.

This thread will be a general Musk catch-all, so we’re including news about Musk acting the fool as related to any of his companies (SpaceX, Tesla, Boring). News about those companies that don’t involve Elon can be posted outside this thread.

    I felt a great disturbance in the Lemmyverse, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly … moved to this post.

    Bravo. Thank you

      Lol, thanks. We’ll most likely leave posts that were submitted before this thread since most of them have already generated discussion and we’d hate to cut that off. It would be great if there was some way to bundle up existing posts under a single post without removing them, but I’ve yet to see a site with a feature like that.

        Isn’t the “correct” way (using that term very loosely here) to create a new community and move the stuff over there? Then people who are interested in that topic can just subscribe that one. You could call it /c/eloncirclejerk or something like that.

        Conceptually, a megathread is like a community, but within the hierarchy of another community.
