It's honestly astounding how Elon Musk took over a healthy, functioning, respected, and successful company, laid off most of its workforce, fundamentally changed the user experience for the worse, and completely decimated their verification system, thereby eroding any trust that anyone had in their integrity, in the span of six short months. Claiming that badges were given arbitrarily, and then taking away existing ones, just to give them to those that pay a subscription fee, or to whoever you feel like.
