Just in the last one year, we've gotten: Twitter Notes, long form video, checkmarks for everyone, subscriptions for creators, edit tweets, see # of replies and likes on a tweet
Yes, Twitter is worth less than he paid for it. He's partially responsible, he's been too erratic. But I'm optimistic with this shipping velocity, in a couple years the company will be worth much more.
- ianburrell 3y agoEditing tweets was in testing in Sep 2022 before the acquisition. Subscriptions was released in 2021 then called Super Follows. Notes was rolled out in Jun 2022, before the acquisition. Basically, half the things you attribute to Musk are the major features they released before him.
- ericfrazier 3y agoOne major feature they shipped was not ostracizing half their users. All shitter ships now is ways to get at liberals.
- eppsilon 3y agoI think Fleets and Spaces were both released in the couple of years pre-Musk. (Fleets was later removed.)
