I have a related question. What are some plausible explanations as to why community notes still exist?

The most charitable explanation is that Musk believes in the concept, even though it is often used against him and his online friends.

A less charitable explanation would be that some regulation requires it. Maybe the consent decree?

Would anyone who is better informed on the matter care to share an opinion?

Having listened to Musk speak on the topic: he seems to believe in community notes as an effective way to suss out truth in a less biased way. He sounds like a fan.

>>bigyik+u6
He also has the ability to delete them off his tweets (and presumably others he agrees with)

It's a rigged system but seeing idiots and liars get smacked upside the head [1] in a public way is definitely helpful
