  Why? Jack is the one that is publicly regretting it. He’s the one that needs to propose solutions. And if he is working on a solution, then tell us that solution or what he’s planning to do

  Implement ActivityPub inside twitter to make it Just Another Fediverse Instance. Jack has (had?) the authority to do it, unlike the GP who can't fix the problem individually from their laptop

  Elon, for all his bluster, built an industry with the goal of getting humanity to Mars. Recently, he's sold off his mansions as being unneeded excess. There's no end to charitable work that can use the funds. He could lobby for affordable housing in San Fran, fighting all those "nimby" interests. He could lobby against the military industrial complex, against the revolving door between Wall Street and the White House, for clean energy, for non-GMO natural foods (and against Bill Gates's soylent projects). You know, stuff like that. He'd only need to pick one to make a difference. Or maybe... Lobby for the destruction of the engagement algorithms. Granted, this would make a great many powerful people very angry, and they'd turn on him like sharks on a wounded school-mate, but it would be more honorable than complaining after the massive payday.

Please don't post in the flamewar style to HN, regardless of how annoying someone is or you feel they are. It's not what this site is for, and it destroys what it is for. If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
