WELL, GOOD:

Say, how’s that Brussels-friendly European alternative to X coming along?

Here’s what Grok had to say: “At beta launch they talked ~55,000 users and a year-end target of 100,000, a million in 2027. An August interview still cited a 120,000 waitlist. A mid-September German write-up of the project noted a blogger’s claim that 90%+ of accounts were idle and that interaction numbers looked cooked. Treat user counts as marketing until someone independent audits them.”

Treat that as yet another reminder that extorting from American innovators is what Europe does now instead of innovating.
