Still seems pretty optimistic to me. Twitter's institutional engineering knowledge and relationships with its customers, i.e. advertisers, have all been set on fire. It's unlikely Twitter will fully die, but I can't see how, next time anyone gets to sell it, it will have even a quarter of its original value. And Musk isn't likely to cut his losses, seeing how his actions up to this point have been driven by hubris. He's going to ride it all the way to the bottom. I expect it to go for pennies on the dollar.
- pifm_guy 4y agoUsers seem to be spending more time in twitter than ever before... Sure, everyone 'hates' it, but by one key metric it seems to be doing rather well.
- andrewflnr 4y agoActive users aren't revenue. In fact they're a cost unless Twitter can get enough advertisers.
- temp2022account 4y agoI actually began paying for twitter just to be a metric; if twitter throws advertisers out and becomes a paid-only social network I think it will pave the way for a less toxic internet with fewer perverse incentives. I wish you could give them more than $11 without having to resort to buying dummy ad-space.
