What about laying off 75% of its workforce and open sourcing the twitter algorithm?



Is the company more valuable ?


Well it increases revenue, so certainly. The open sourcing increases its ethicality; I guess you could say it's not direct value.

In terms of pure market cap, which I'm not sure how relevant it is, it seems that the current valuation (41 billion) is higher than when he offered to buy it (34 billion in April 2022).


I'd love to see a user count. My impression is a few people left, but I'm not sure.
