As easy as it is to hate what he did to Twitter I wonder how much of that original value was just "VC hype" and now people see it for the failure it has always been like all social media in a way. Turns out it's pretty hard making money out of non paying users.

I think alienating all the advertisers probably didn't help much either.

The original value was based on ad revenue which is down now. It has nothing to do with VC hype or non paying users.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
