No you’re not
Twitter broke barely even
You paid twice it’s worth and then within 2 years got it to only 20% of its value, pushing away all power users and advertisers.
You’re bleeding money like there is no tomorrow and you’ll still be bankrupt or jailed soon enough. If not during Trump’s presidency, then most certainly after it

hm, someone told me it was so easy to cut wasteful spending.
At this point if you’re still working there knowingly building a powerful fascist gathering platform after so much time available to leave, taking dirty Nazi money as payment for your services…
I dunno man… should I feel bad for the staff, or are the remaining staff complicit enough at this point?
Or maybe take a paycheck and do substandard job introduce bugs etc.
Heck, I’ll even do that for a company I like!
Let’s not blame fellow workers for doing what they need to survive. Big tech companies are exploitive by nature, espcially H1B visas are basically indebted servitude at this point.
This is about class, not left vs right.
Feel bad for the poor bastards stuck there on visas. Feel less bad about anyone looking around that can’t quit but can’t find another job. Would you hire someone who’s still working at Twitter? I probably wouldn’t even pull that resume for an interview.
That’s a point I had not considered. Twitter is resume poison, at this point.
Do they have employees on H1B? If so, that may be why they haven’t jumped ship for less-Nazified pastures. Not excusing anyone, just striving to understand.
X has added some features, like job listings
Who the fuck looks for jobs on X?
Nazis probably
Ironically, his general audience does not possess the skills, that were necessary to fill the roles he emptied. Good luck hiring for that
Huh? I’m referring to the “job listings” feature of X, not looking for job opportunities at X.
I’d “work there” long enough to get on a pip and terminated. Lol
Drain a little bit of cash out of them. Lol
I’m not a Nazi lol
I’m referring to looking for jobs using X, not looking for a job at X (which I thought was clear when quoting the article’s mention of “job listings”).
Ah. Well it would help if I could read.
But yes I agree with your thought… I definitely wouldnt go there to look for a job.
Who the fuck looks for jobs on X?
People who prefer something (slightly) less toxic than LinkedIn lol
There’s no fucking way they’re breaking even.
@breakfastmtn @cm0002 it already bought an election, how much it is worth?
Yeah. Bought an election for a bum who doesn’t understand loyalty or how to pay his bills. Lol.
What a Dumbass.
The man bought an election with disinformation and lobbying, who gives a fuck what he says about this company. Who knows what the fuck break even even means in his addled brain.
Does stagnant actually mean negative?
- Buys a financially struggling company for way too much money
- Dismantles everything that made it attractive
- Turned it into something so repulsive and toxic that the users and advertisers leave
- Told the advertisers to “go fuck themselves”
- Tried to sue the advertisers into returning, further discouraging any new advertiser from ever doing business with him
- Whines and bitches about the company not making any money
Hey guys, I’m starting to think that this guy’s fortune has absolutely fuckall to do with his skills at running a business
What was the username he stole? Don’t remember that one
Also, don’t forget the disastrous rollout of the blue checks when a few people imitated companies and said Lockheed wouldn’t be doing business with Israel and a few others. But I guess that was the best thing he did, honestly, because that shit was hilarious.
I believe he took user name ‘x’ because he wanted it.
Hey guys, I’m starting to think that this guy’s fortune has absolutely nothing to do with his skills at running a business
Great summary btw. and you are absolutely right here. He is a terrible manager.
Remember the time when he slept at the Tesla factory just because he didn’t trust anybody and thought he himself must rescue it all by working so much overtime and make all the decisions.
He is a terrible manager.
I still can’t get over how Musk told computer programmers to print out hardcopies of all their source changes, and then fly to Musk’s city to show him the hardcopy. That alone proves Musk is the dumbest CEO of all time.
Probably because his wife kicked him out for being an asshole.
You forgot the part where couchefucker Vance threatened Europe to pull out of NATO if Europe wouldn’t stop suing and leaving twatter
That paragraph above would normally be so bizarre that it wouldn’t even make it to TV for being too… Out there… But this is the timeline we’re in now, this is the new normal
Destroys the brand recognition by renaming it to a letter of the alphabet he personally likes but nobody else gives a crap about
I’m beginning to suspect he only likes that letter because it’s the middle part of a swastika.
Let’s call it a musktika
Hey, it’s not just that! It’s also decimal 88 in the ASCII table.
🫣I see!
Elon uses X as ASCII 88 and Proton CEO uses 1011000 as binary ASCII
What about all these Nazi people everywhere suddenly?!
In pretty sure Andy is born in 1988 to be fair
Oh, I see
Oh shit. I didn’t think of that. That’s probably why.
Did you include the whole ‘verified’ tag fiasco in your list? I didn’t see it explicitly in there, but maybe it falls under a general functionality fuck-up point.
If only they had competant management…
Musk also said that the company could become cash-flow positive “within months” nearly two years ago, and it still faces over $1 billion in annual interest payments on the loans.
3 months maybe, 6 months definitely
Wouldn’t barely breaking even actually be exceptionally good in the history of twitter? I though it had been burning money from its conception.
You’d expect it – most online companies do, as it makes sense for companies with high fixed costs and low variable costs – to have a growth phase, during which it loses money but aims to grow by being maximally appealing. Once it’s grown as far as it reasonably can or as money permits, the growth phase ends and the monetization phase begins. Twitter’s growth phase was over. It would never have been expected for Twitter to just lose money forever.
No, Twitter had started making a profit when he bought it. The last year they had a court case which made the year a loss, but the years before were profitable.
After Twitter already not being profitable. Add all the loss of marketing from businesses and users leaving, then the cost of all the bots and lawsuits.
How come it is “barely breaking even”? Who is paying them? Fascists?
All the blue checkmarks probably helps, and the premium crap too
He’s laundering money through it most likely
Bullshit. No way does Twitter make anywhere near a profit, and that’s NOT taking into account the payments on 44Bn.
I think it’s time to fire half of the people! That will help.
Starting with everyone that wrote the least amount of code. I only want to see overly complex code for hello world!
