> Kayvon is one of the best product leaders / visionaries I know. Maybe this person is absolutely amazing and is just constrained by the crazy realities of working in a very large and political company. Maybe they did the best possible job under difficult circumstances. I'm not the insider and can't easily judge that. But as an outsider, what I can judge is that it's easy to perceive the Twitter platform as basically doing nothing truly noteworthy in terms of design/features to improve the platform other than feeling like a slower and slower site, while at the same time it's increasingly hostile to the open Internet (stuff like blocking viewing Tweets unless you login), and has some significant and growing freedom of speech issues until Musk came along. The stuff that outsiders can judge doesn't feel too good.
