    Super frustrating to see a platform that was doing just fine (it wasstill Twitter, so I mean relatively) get flown directly into the ground so hard. Like, has he actually done anything whatsoever that has made it better? Twitter was technically profitable was was aiming to be actually profitable and now it’s just a dumpster fire of money

      Absolutely. But no, I don’t think he’s made it better in any way - and that wasn’t the point. Ever since he was locked into the purchase the plan seems to have changed into running it into the ground.

      There’s no way they can maintain the $13bn debt he saddled it with, most of what he’s been doing is something of a farce to cover up that as the reason for the business closing - eg “those advertisers leaving are going to kill the business!” That, and any of the dodgy shit they get away with (like API charges) becomes the norm for any future social media platforms.
