@ElemWiz An autistic (socially challenged) guy buys a social network, and it tanks. I'm not surprised. However, this is the guy who slept on factory floors till problems were fixed. He also has the resources to be patient. AOL was formerly Quantum Computer Services. I don't think Elon did this for the lols though. I think he did it for the reasons he said he would, and didn't realize that drastic quick changes would shock the users. He's used to walking on stage and showing something extreme and the crowd going wild. But doing that to something that's already in people's homes is a different matter entirely. It's the same as if you've bought a car, drove it for a years, and the manufacturer comes by and says, "we're gonna completely modify your car". While the small percentage of car modification enthusiasts, are excited, the rest are kinda angry or worried. While evolution is a good thing, rapid evolution usually is catastrophic, especially when forced. I'm just speculating here, but I think Elon is ripping it all apart and going to build something brand new with the pieces, and whatever that is will probably be pretty awesome and it won't be forced on anyone. Again, this is speculation, but if we don't speculate, we'd be walking into walls.
Hey man, sorry for the tooooooooot 🤣
Have a great weekend.
