I look forward to the day when people stop talking about Elon and go fly a kite or something.

Kites are nice. 🪁

That would be a day to rejoice.

Valve is not a publicly traded company, so it would be slightly more difficult, as he couldn't just buy majority shares and make an offer.

What improvements has elon done to Twitter lmao?
He just bought 9% of Twitter and everybody is acting like he is the saviour or something when in reality nothing has really changed
However he did managed to get more attention, which is something he is always looking for, so the only one that got benefit is pretty much elon himself

And even if he owned most of Twitter nothing would rly change either , he just wants attention, not saying he is douche but he just wants attention, thats it

I've noticed controversial accounts have had their follower count increased dramatically, which might be attributed to many accounts getting unbanned.

Yeah and it's a dumb reason, like oh I buy twitter so I can make free speech.

It's simply a race to own more systems which the world will use, such as cars, paypal, twitter. Only that way one can profit from millions of people everyday, instead of working for just one company and earning just 1 fixed salary. He will soon be a trillionaire in a few more years. His followers are people who buy his stories, people who buy his shares.

It's not going to be Valve or TF2 because that's just a few gaming people.

He'd probably require people to have a twitter account to post on Steam forums.

Bots arent even everywhere

Tf2 is NOT dead but...

But something tf2 community struggles to understand is that arena shooters like tf2 just doesnt attract most of public nowadays and valve themselves doesnt have the motivation to work on such outdated project and wants to work on something way better, more exciting, cutting-edge and that will attract the public some day
Tf2 unfortunately just couldnt adapt to there modern days where everybody in a PvP wants something challenging and a real competitive mode, which is normal, ppl get better and better

Tf2 has just become something irrelevant in the last decade, and the more time passes the more irrelevant it will become even if heavy update releases ,sure heavy update may get some players back (those who left tf2 before pretty much) but after some days or weeks the game will go back to the average numbers it has today

Sure 50k ppl on average is a considerable amount but nothing rly important or something to brag out like the community does

And even that tf2 on source2 community project will die rly quick once the hype is gone just like all those community projects of valve games like black mesa or aperture tag (does anyone even remember aperture tag lmao??)

Might be ≠ actually happen

And also high amount of followers means nothing to get someone banned

Again, you are just proving my point ,he is not doing anything lmao
He is just promoting himself ,and his strat is working

why in the hell would you want him to fix TF2? If anything, you should be encouraging new releases. Not beating a dead horse.
