Is anyone human still working at X/Twitter?

I think that Twitter is broken (DOH). It stopped sending SMS messages and it asks me to use a code from SMS message.

Is anyone besides Elon working there?

Support seems to be a bot that asks me to do the same and ignores input from me. This is a terrible experience. How did you fix you issue with twitter?

By simply never using it. This is the future you're doomed to with every single digital service you engage with. Pay for it or don't, the website will break all the same.

This is not the answer I was hoping for. :)

I can't even work up enough faux enthusiasm to wish you luck or encourage hope. An off-shift Twitter employee is not going to triage with you and make everything better. Is giving up an option?

Thank you.

I guess the time is for me to start using a different platform. Perhaps one that I can control. ;)

Let's hope for a dweb standard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decentralized_web

One day it will simply stop working. Something will be wrong, and it'll not be spotted. It will come back, but the failures will be a slow cascade of dominoes. Two more years, perhaps one. Will it last the election?

Only the ones without any moral values. About your problem, I fixed it by blocking twitter.com in my /etc/hosts
