Twitter brought in $5bil in revenue in 2021. That doesn't sound broken. Whether they spent that money efficiently, and whether they could avoid FTC fines, is a different issue. > That was broken when he bought it. You know what, you

This question comes up in every thread about most large tech companies. I'm genuinely curious, is it impossible to figure out what all those people are doing? Have you worked in a large company before? If not, do you think most are doi

Instagram, at the time, was significantly limited in functionality. IG didn't have Android and web support until 2012, it was iOS only until then. The more features you offer, the more complex your system needs to be, the more people y

I spend hours a day on Twitter, and today has been by far the best in the few weeks. Things deteriorated temporarily but I’m missing where the concrete decrease in value is.

A week has passed and it seems like they’ve fixed it up. Similarly for the last week I’ve had increasing issues loading tweet details and it peaked yesterday, but today all seems fine. We’ll have to wait months before we can truly know if t

Twitter's interest burden wasn't this ridiculous as a public company, and they make $1bil/quarter on average (well, they were before Musk ran away advertisers). When you say "money pit" I imagine investors dumping i
