Back in January, Twitter blocked content in India at Modi's request. More than just blocking links, certain tweets themselves were blocked:

In March, Twitter blocked a bunch of accounts in India, widening the censorship:

Guardian reported on it last week:
"Twitter agreed to block more than 120 accounts, including the Canadian politician Jagmeet Singh, the Canadian poet Rupi Kaur, several journalists and an Indian MP. Twitter also blocked the handle of the BBC’s Punjabi bureau."
In 2022, Musk said that Tesla looked into opening facilities in India but it as conditional on being able to sell and service cars in India (which makes sense). Given that it's an economically growing country of 1.4 billion people, it's a long-term important market to sell to. India might never be a profit center for Twitter, but it could certainly be a profit center for Tesla.
Yesterday, Elon Musk followed Modi on Twitter.
"Elon Musk has started to follow Narendra Modi, the prime minister of India, on Twitter. The tech billionaire's action has generated a lot of discussion on social media, with many people guessing about what it might signal for the future of Tesla in India."
"Free speech absolutism" goes about as far as business interests do. Any centralized platform is corruptible, controllable.
My another alt account got permanently blocked for talking about Jews.

Once the feed is loaded, it shouldn't refresh and update the posts until the end of feed is reached or a special button is clicked directing it to refresh the feed.
The posts currently move all around the places and it's not a nice experience.
Also, since I have your attention, really appreciate if we don't alter the feed when we go back to the feed screen from post screen using "cmd+[" on mac.
What's happening is that I focus a post, read it, interact with it but when I go back there is a glitch in the feed; the posts move around the places and it won't go to where I had left off. It's a major hindrance to browsing for long times.
Sorry swiping doesn't work ffor me.
Buffett investing in Japanese stocks implies a bigger shift in geo politics between US and japan.
US buried Japanese economy in the 90s using its central bank to prevent it from overtaking the US. Given the rise of China, US needs a strong country in the region. Given the historical animosity between China and Japan, it becomes eligible as the perfect candidate. Capital inflows, more growth, rearmament of japan might follow.
