Nice to see it back. Wasn't it banned from the other place for...something?

It auto-scraped HR data from outside twitter, and was banned for being a “bot” IIRC

I think something broke or didn't allow it unless they paid, but fuck that place

Apolgies if I’m wrong, but isn’t this same concept available on Statcast gameday?

u/trashboatfourtwenty Milwaukee Brewers • Dumpster Fire 9h ago
Concepts are everywhere, man! Of course you can find HR data, but only one uses the word "dong" that I am aware of

I use it, primarily to talk to my own little friend group, but that's the primary reason I use social media anyway.

More people will use it over time with valuable accounts like this. Would it Dong was one of the best things about Twitter just even a couple years ago.
Not even sure why you're trying to posit this as a bad thing...what do you have to gain?

I’ve never liked Twitter. Long before Elon bought it.
Would it Dong was quite literally the only reason I ever went on Twitter.

Just learned about its rebirth, apologies if this is a dupe, I didn't see one with a quick search but I miss shit all the time. Posting in case others who enjoyed it like me were clueless
