Taboola’s data, shared exclusively with Axios, shows Musk has outpaced his closest peers — Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg — for years, but the gap widened dramatically in 2024.

The spam is already exponential. :(

    I truly do not understand this community nor its reddit namesake…

    When I asked over there years ago, I was told it was a place to “consolidate Musk news so people can block it” but it’s not like people choose between a news community and this one…it gets posted in both. Double the musk spam…

      I think the idea is you downvote all the musk spam elsewhere and block this one, while directing people here for the news if they want it.

        Great idea if everyone is on board…double the upvoted musk posts if not

      I don’t like posting anything Musk, but I do think his engagement metrics are notable. There’s a ‘subjective’ feeling he as a scary amount of eyeballs glued to him, and this is objective confirmation of that.

      In other words, I view this sub as one to ‘observe’ Musk.
