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
But when he got Community Noted he called it state sponsored action:

> Interesting. This Note is being gamed by state actors. Will be helpful in figuring who they are. Thanks for jumping in the honey pot, guys lmao!

It's plausible that state actors would try to game community notes somehow. It's hard but no system is perfect and there are very refined actors out there.

Maybe, but if he really thinks they're being systematically brigaded by state actors you'd hope he'd be more worried about it in general and not only when he thinks it happened to him personally.

> you'd hope he'd be more worried about it in general and not only when he thinks it happened to him personally.

why? this sounds exactly like something he'd do. "if it happens to me it is bad, but if it happens to others then it is just free speech" or some such

Sounds irrelevant to that which you replied to. (you stated that which is in response to that which would be hoped)
