Genuine question: how has Musk leadership impacted Twitter objectively.
- chii 3y agoFired a bunch of people, probably lost a lot of institutional knowledge about the systems inside twitter. Lost engineerring moral, so new features, or bug fixes are less likely to come out (or whatever that comes out will be shit quality). On the other hand, Musk saved twitter a bunch of money. However that doesn't really benefit users. Fortunately, or unfortuantely, depending on your POV, twitter's network effect is so large that even such a move by Musk is not going to break twitter - at least, not in the short term. There's just too much momentum, too many users that currently rely on twitter as their source of information.
