    I highly doubt that a company with the monetary force behind it that Meta has needs to steal code from Twitter. Besides, it’s made evident more every day that Twitter is the code equivalent of spaghetti and duct tape after Musk had his way with it.

    And what makes X upstanding in comparison to Meta? I mean I’m honestly not arguing in favor of Meta and Threads as much as I’m trying to paint the picture that this is Elon “I’ll sign an agreement buying Twitter for $44 Billion and attempt to fight my way out of it before the ink dries” Musk that is on the other side of this.

      Oh Elon’s a piece of shit. It’s just I am confident that in investigating either of them they are going to find any manner of bad behavior, but that if an open-source alternative had even a whiff of plagiarism it’d have been hit with takedown notices long ago.
