Advertising revenue in Twitter crashes by 50%
(lemmy.world)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Maybe.... I don't know, just throwing ideas out there.... you shouldn't have Musked all over Twitter nor fired its core developers? Again, just thinking out loud....
Or saddled the business with 10 billion in debt? Shit is like an ouroboros...
Not even just that... Alienates all potential leftwing/brand friendly advertiser's through changes and being the spokesperson for the platform.
"We're down 50% how could this have happened?????" - Elon Musk
Dude needs to stfu, make an alt account. He has chosen to be the spokesperson for the platform. Spouting off conspiracies and controversial takes. You can't be surprised nobody wants to associate with him.
He is a liability and a brand risk. Sure he can have his opinions but here is the problem...
He has chosen to be extremely public and force those opinions onto the average consumer feed due to his narcissistic tendencies and it is biting him in the ass.
No sympathy. He wanted free speech, (albeit it isn't because he is okay as long as it doesn't criticise him or his affiliates.) now he has his free speech platform but in the same way advertisers can chose not to engage with it.
But then nobody would know it's him and the tweets would get no attention
Genius at work coming through!
Let that sink in!
