Regardless of whether you have a PR team or not, how is making a fool out of yourself anything but embarrassing? Kicking off an API developer campaign mere day

Regardless of whether you have a PR team or not, how is making a fool out of yourself anything but embarrassing?
Kicking off an API developer campaign mere days after silently killing API access for its biggest users is a VERY bad look. Are you saying that Musk is intentionally trying to make Twitter look like the laughing stock of the tech industry?
- smcl 4y agoI think he’s definitely trying to look like a cutthroat, willing to strip down the company to its essentials and reintroduce a sort of startup culture. The fact that his efforts have also made Twitter and himself a bit of a laughing stock are an unfortunate side effect to how poorly and clumsily he's executed this plan. Note: I used to say that even though I don't particularly love some of the changes Musk made, I hoped it would turn out ok and that Twitter would survive somehow. But I accidentally cured myself of my Twitter habit (waited a couple of days to see if Tweetbot would regain API access again, never restarted) so I’m just kinda indifferent to it now.
