Elon Musk Urges Mr Beast to Post Videos on Twitter for Equal Earnings

Public begging? How embarrassing

plz :(

-Elon Musk

I didn’t realize anyone earned anything on Twitter ever. Is this just video views? Is this new?

Also, fuck Musk, etc.

How is he going to be able to handle more videos when he has to ration text views because it's melting his servers.

He's always been desperate for attention, but now the public sentiment has finally turned against him everything he does just looks sad.

Oh and his memes were always stale AF.

Two people in this world that you should never get an IOU from: Trump and Musk.

They just don't pay their bills. It's not worth the effort.

With what money, Elon? You can't afford to pay Google or office rent but you're going to pay Mr. Beast?

Every time Elon begs for money, I donate to my Mastodon or Lemmy admins.

A company notorious for revenue problems and missing bill payments is definitely who I would want to enter a business relationship with. Where do I sign up?

Richest man in the world begging for pennies.

How can MrBeast post a 10-minute video on Twitter? Should he make a thread for a video? 😆 😆

Doesn't Elon hate trans people or whatever?

Pretty sure Mr Beast is a company, not a person. I mean, we know who he is, but like, he isn't the guy managing millions of dollars.

Pretty sure they are a well oiled machine, still making ridiculous amount of money.

Asking them to come to your platform publicly like that would be like BC college asking the Red Sox to play a few games on their turf for funzies.

They wouldn't show up without a down payment equal to what they pull down on an average night at home.

Fuck Musk. He should do us all a favour and go suck on the tail end of one of “his” rockets.

All the jokes aside, it's still amazing the CEO over a year in doesn't even know how profitable being an user that drives engagement on the site is compared to a (I guess) competitor like youtube. He's just like we're as profitable as youtube for you, or if not we can be, like the guy knows nothing and is just throwing claims out there with no basis in reality or plan to follow through on them.

This looks so desperate

Interesting that he would try to use the potential number of views as a selling point while also publicly decimating the reach of Twitter posts lol

Not sure elon could afford the cloud bills if mrbeast actually did that

Shouldn't Mr. Musk pay his server bills first?

Even billionaires are begging MrBeast for shit now, lmao.

Wish Twitter would just stop existing already. Why do people acknowledge the shitty owner of the site at all? Just keep this scum out the news. Easy.

No one would watch videos in GARBAGEp resolution when 1080p is right behind a corner on YT

Top bad Twitter's video player is very bad, and Twitter's but rate is very noticably worse than YouTube.

Also I don't watch Mr beast so I don't give a shit in the first place.

His new CEO is desperate as well.

Lmao elon is so thirsty, it’s hilarious

Nobody's going to watch long form videos on Twitter as long as YouTube exists

Just when you thought he can't be any more embarrassing...

Damn, I thought I was on r/funny for a second then I remembered reddit didn't exist

fuck elon

Eh.. mr Beast is a "your people get in touch with my people" kind of guy, and by people I mean lawyers talking about money.

Please clap

putting earnings equal to youtube... lol

i mean sure, it sounds great

but... their site is utter shit, if you use it as a video-consumption media...

he's already begging

Elone will surely pay content creators. He just doesn't like to pay anyone else.

One could ask them: „How come you're not posting on our platform? Can we improve anything?”

Or you can go the Elon Musk way.

Is it PR/purely for publicity? Is it a spontaneous thought posted as a Tweet? Is it an offer with public visibility for increased impact? Is it underhanded trying to get more publishers to join the platform? Is it desperate try to get them or anyone as a publisher? It's certainly ambiguous and unprofessional. But that's nothing new.

Does Twitter even host video?

How reassuring, "should".

can i haz some eyeballs uwu

I get why people are doubtful about Musk. I just wanna see YouTube's monopoly broken and streamers/entertainers get their due. I do not like how YouTube treats content creators. Maybe a competitive alternative is a good thing.

Very pathetic Elon. It will not make any sense to the man who build an empire on YouTube to post videos on Twitter or any other social media. It's not about the money, it's about braniding. Mr Beast is a Youtube icon. And it would not be a suprise I'd they have some contracts with YouTube.

If Elon wants to compete he needs to focus on new talents who use Twitter as their main and only plataform, similar to what Twitch does. Probably he should give Vines a second chance. I think it was Twitter error to close it. Now shorts and streaming are on demand.

Trying to steal other platforms talents is just nonsense.

Who watches those bullshit videos anyway? The guy is as fake as they get. So is Elon.

Even if Mr beast posted his videos on Twitter I doubt it would make a difference. Why would people come to Twitter just to watch his vids?

Eww...the smell of desperation.

Who are these people?

144p MrBeast

Well, it looks like a W for Zuck, I just hope it's not doom for the Fediverse, somehow. I don't really care if the Twitter exodus goes elsewhere, they've already been stepping on the flowers pretty hard at Mastodon, I just don't want to be somehow annexed by Facebook.

Can Lemmy do anything besides post about Elon, Threads, Zuckerberg, and Reddit? Is it just a bunch of bots spamming the place?

I came here to avoid all that shit, not talk about it.

What was Mr Beast's reply?

MuskRat so desperate

With a shitty video player like Twitter's, let there be views first before talking about "earnings per view".

Just hitting all the buttons.

*begs

Was this tweet removed? I can't find it.

Please, do it, I just want to see what happens. It really is like watching the Titanic of the internet sink

Is that how much he's earning per video?

Mr. Beast should just by Twitter

Substitute “Urges” to “Begs”

Social media is technology, huh

Jeeze, people here are lame as fuck. They want to interject their saltiness into MrBeast's business decisions just to stick it to Musk.

Elon's living in your head for free and its hilarious.
