Oddbean new post about login | logout You think Musk will outright kill twitter soon?
I'm hoping that's the idea tbh
There's no way Elon would ever do something that based.
Right, considering he dropped $40 billion; but a man can dream.
Twi being the chosen app for media, celebrities, and politicians is eventually coming to an end. He wants Twitter to be a “do everything“ app like a combination of Pay Pal, Instagram, and Discord. Not sure that’s better.
he said he wanted to turn it into wechat for americans. and just like china apparently that starts with a score lol.
Trying to make "WeChat for Americans" betrays a profound and deep misunderstanding of the fundamentally different ways China and the West use the Internet. You're never going to get Westerners to use the Internet like China does. It'll fail like all the earlier attempts that were made to do vice-versa over the past couple decades.
The same people are pulling the strings. New CEO, same masters. On requiring biometric data from users, it's for blue checks...for now. https://i.poastcdn.org/846b0aa4e15bd717f9bf176c3fff5d11f1b7986bbf0cf2cf70b79d94065774a0.jpg
