I was admittedly giving him benefit of the doubt at first, because an active user of the website would understand how not to break it. I just struggle to rationalize any of the decisions he's made thus far.
- philosopher1234 4y agoI think benefit of the doubt was somewhat warranted. Waiting to see what happens. But there were many who just completely dismissed the valid risks and criticisms people raised.
- bagels 4y agoHe was either: completely making wrong inferences and misunderstanding the statistics around the bots problem, or just lying to try to get out of the deal. Neither deserves benefit of the doubt.
- philosopher1234 4y agoMaybe wrong phrase. It still seems plausible that he comes out ahead here. But it’s probably not good for the world.
- makeitdouble 4y agoI think it could go hand in hand. What an "active user" does and expects from Twitter is wildly different depending on your residence country, social position, gender, age, occupation etc. There is not one Twitter experience, but a multitude, and expecting to fully grasp the platform just by being on it for a few years is unrealistic.
- ncallaway 4y agoI think that's important to note, and also worth keeping in mind that Elon's Twitter experience is probably an extreme outlier in terms of how users interact with the site.
