Musk so far has talked about fixing search, adding the ability to post long-form video and attach long text to tweets instead of having to paste images of text, like an animal. He's also reworking the site business model so that heavy users can get a subscription tier with more features. These seem like... pretty sensible directions to take the product, based on how people are really using it. The "fired" people get to sit around doing nothing at full pay for the next three months, while the not-fired are being asked to do a reasonable amount of work for an engineering staff of thousands. As to the mocking and whining part, if it bugs you then don't read his tweets. I've hated the guy for years and that approach has worked great for me!

Forcing it by combining it with the blue check and cutting feature like ad free articles isn't a good way a getting paid customers >The "fired" people get to sit around doing nothing at full pay for the next three months And then? Bills still need to be paid after these 3 month and at the moment most companies put a freeze to hiring new employees. >while the not-fired are being asked to do a reasonable amount of work for an engineering staff of thousands. Implementing a feature with short deadline or get fired sounds reasonable to you? Forcing managers to work 12 hours and 7 days a week is neither https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/01/twitter-chaos/ https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/01/twitter-chaos/ >if it bugs you then don't read his tweets It doesn't bug me, but it shows but customer relationship.
