Agreed. I think people are looking at CN/Birdwatch being from Twitter and seeing red without looking at the details.

CN predates Musk burning Twitter to the ground, and CN is actually a decent product that can only get better as it is honed.



But community notes have been around since before Musk bought twitter and they have not had any effect at reducing the amount of outright falsehoods passed off as "news" on that hellscape. Why do people keep championing it as a success story when it demonstrably hasn't helped?

Frankly, if it worked, it would have been removed by now. It's "controlled opposition" basically.
