Pro-musks activists keep telling us it’s no big deal but how exactly is it better for users to kick them all out of tweetdeck and force them to pay for twitter blue?

More and more accounts are getting off the twitter bandwagon. Clearly it has an impact on users to keep losing features, being asked to pay and now being limited in how many tweets they can read per day. How’s that an improvement for the normal user?

You've listed a few anti-user changes here - some of them incorrect (nobody is forced to pay for anything) - and then asked how the anti-user changes are pro-user. Certainly not the most logical of questions. There are of course many other changes. A better question would be, despite the claims you're making (those of which are valid), has the user experience gotten better or worse? Aside from the third-party apps and temporary rate-limits, you haven't mentioned anything else. So add those negatives to the changes that are pro-user positives and I think you have your answer.

By the way - what is a pro-Musk activist? Someone who corrects false statements on the internet?
