The richest person in the world, Elon Musk is also known for using social media, especially Twitter, very efficiently. However, Tesla CEO has frequently expressed that he is not very satisfied with the policy followed by Twitter and social media platforms in general lately; he even stated that the company was undermining democracy by ignoring the principles of freedom of expression.
Now, it turned out that Musk, who is unhappy with this trend of Twitter, is very warm to the idea of establishing a new social media platform. Until now, neither Donald Trump’s social media platform Truth Social, nor Twitter’s rivals Gettr and Parler, nor the video site Rumble had been able to reach the popularity of mainstream social media platforms. However, considering that Musk is an extremely popular person on his own, this may mean that Musk is likely to change the course of the game.
We may have a new social media platform
Recently, Musk published a poll on Twitter asking his followers if they truly believe the platform is committed to freedom of expression. The results of this survey will be important. Please vote carefully.” More than 70 percent of the respondents answered “no”.
When a Twitter user was asked yesterday whether he would consider creating an open source, freedom of expression and minimal propaganda, Musk is “seriously” considering the idea of creating a new social media platform. replied that it was.
Should he decide to launch a new platform, Musk will own a growing portfolio of tech companies that hope to attract users who call themselves champions of free speech and who feel their views are suppressed on platforms like Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.
