Conservatives need twitter cause it feeds their need to troll. They have parlor and they just sit up there in a circle jerk.

Ehhh musk is a piece of shyt, but alot of shyt that goes on twitter need to be reign in. Moderation is heavily skewed towards the left, ive seen feminist type all men must die and nothing happens to them, but sometype women need to be in the kitchen they get a week suspension 
Thats why social media need neutral moderation keep both sides in check

It's going to fail like most of his projects.
He doesn't use it. I checked it out a few weeks ago, he had 1 post.

Roger Stone says he's getting censored, see below tweet. Among many others. It has a TOS just like other places. Some were thinking anything goes, some want complete freedom. It's now how it works at most places.
They have competition like Gettr, Parler, GAB etc. those are the right leaning big ones.
You're basically just talking people that have the same views. Most stay on Twitter because they like to get at people on the other side. That's not going to change. Some like the battle, troll etc. Plus, for many on the right, they have turned this into a business and Twitter has the bigger user base, most eyeballs.
Yeah, for now...
Barrons:
Now Musk has given Twitter stock a big lift. His stake in Twitter is said to be a passive one, but as the stock’s reaction shows little Musk does is passive, and just his presence is giving Twitter a big boost. Musk recently used Twitter to argue that Twitter needs to “adhere to free speech principles fundamentally.”
Musk described himself as a free “speech absolutist” shortly after delivering Starlink internet connectivity to Ukraine to help in that country’s battle against invading Russian forces. Musk refused to block Russian news sources, despite his support of Ukraine.
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives expects Musk’s stake to become less passive over time.
“Given Musk’s long standing critical view of Twitter and social media platforms, it was viewed that Musk could look to build a new social media platform to compete with Twitter and others,” he wrote. “Instead it looks like Elon has his eyes laser set on Twitter and we would expect this passive stake as just the start of broader conversations with the Twitter board/management that could ultimately lead to an active stake and a potential more aggressive ownership role of Twitter.”
He also likes his money. Many on the right are thinking Trump will get unbanned now. This won't go over well for many, users and the other 91% of the stakeholders that like money too.
I don't see Trump getting unbanned. Twitter is just doing fine without him, stock actually went up after he was banned. And he was violating the TOS over and over again. They didn't take action at the time because he was President. As soon as they could, they did.
Anything goes doesn't work on platforms like Twitter, they make their money mostly off advertisers. Musk himself isn't down with anything goes, he tried to get that one kid from posting his flight status. Bringing Trump back won't be good for his Tesla business as well.
