Well, it is Twitter. I have a Twitter account which is in restricted mode since creation with no way to fix that. It is the perfect reminder of the state of big "tech" where the tech part is the massive scaling of botched software.

@melezorus34 Well surprisingly I never understood the concept of twitter so far so I've never had the need to use it, but recently saw that many developer related stuff are being tweeted, so I've decided to signup.
But not being able to signup?? My Manager goes on rampage if we have a bug in our signup flow... -
One time, Twitter locked my account thinking it was a spam account when it was an account used for legit content marketing for an accounting firm. Tried to appeal by sending message to their customer service reps and they never responded, and this was part of their appeal process. Absolute joke!

@catgirldev right. To give Elon an accurate amount of active users. Forcing a phonenumber on users is the worst practise ever and i will never use any service like that. (excluding messangers)

I've been trying to signup to twitter for 2 f**** days now with no luck, wtf is happening? it's a major social network for f*** sake.
