    100% of the ads I see on Twitter today are dropshipping scams, while in the pre-musk era they were highly targeted to my job and interests to the point that if there wasn’t the “ad” tag I couldn’t distinguish that.

    They can’t cost the same for the advertiser, a generic dropshipping scam that targets everyone must be cheap

      Targeted ads are more expensive. They need to develop an algorithm for it and the advertiser gets possible higher turnover since it’s no longer random people.

        plus, twitter could track the impressions and conversion rates, so they could charge even more for that, too.
