you mean how twitter was gonna break after so many fires but it didnt? yeah he probably knows a thing or two



The Twitter acquisition is like paying 500k for a house that’s worth 300k, turning around and gutting it so it’s only worth 175k, then claiming victory because “hey at least it didn’t burn down”.

I think it’s hard to see what has happened to Twitter as anything but utterly breaking the business.


P U S S Y I N B I O

But seriously, how can you not go to Twitter and see that it has become totally enshittified. The real lesson learned there is that large tech infrastructures are actually stable enough to survive a lot of BS without collapsing. Doesn't make the products pleasant to use, though.


I wouldn't call X-Elon-Twitter a success. It was more like not a complete failure.


The point is, there isn't literally a smoking crater where Twitter HQ used to be, therefore all criticism of the acquisition is invalid.
