  • Running a social media company is not at all like running a normal tech company. It’s one part technology, but it’s one part psychology. He doesn’t understand the psychology part whatsoever. He doesn’t understand stand why people choose to engage or not engage with a community. He doesn’t understand how and why Twitter became part an important news and information source and all of decisions he’s made so far have reduced the relevance of the product.

    Twitter verified status is there to help people trust Twitter, not just the person behind the checkmark. Now nobody trust your product. It also doesn’t take a genius to understand that limiting access to your product makes people use it less.














  • draw users in with piles of money and way better exposure, then get everyone on board with your well ran service with good ui and 100% uptime. Play nice with everyone else, meanwhile gaining dominance on the fediverse. Get a very large userbase in comparison to everyone else. Now, once you gain that dominance, you basically control the fediverse. You can steer it anyway you want. You could even defederate with your userbase and enjoy your new found network built on the back of the community.
