User growth is ‘stagnant’ on the platform formerly known as Twitter.
As someone who just realized their twitter account was active after several years of not using it…This makes me entirely too happy that I deleted it.
So how long until they go into negative? 99 trillion years?
Aw fuck. X is breaking even? :-(
Elon Musk email to X staff: ‘we’re barely breaking even’
Honestly, I’m surprised that things are going that well.
Lol, are you taking this child at his word for a semi-public comment he made?
Come now… We all know better.
Well… now that you mention it there were more then a few half finished ends to my post where I speculated that maybe Mush was just stupid or deluded by the sycophants he surrounds himself with, but after struggling with the ending I decide to just keep it simple and take him at his word.
Why do I get the impression if you get that email from management you’re hemorrhaging worse than the top TV doctors could save you? Unless it’s an end of season episode, but mid season they’re playing some sad music before the end. Oh and look it’s mid season…unless you’re on a streaming schedule.
Damn I’m old, they’re all on a streaming schedule now eh?
Yah, that’s a “we’re going down the waterfall, strap in” email.
Considering how much he paid for Twitter I question his understanding of money and therefore his claim of “breaking even”.
You can be breaking even without making up the initial cost.
It just means they aren’t going into further debt.
He knows full well all-staff emails are going to be leaked. So he wanted this message to get out. If he hadn’t, he would have dealt only with the managers in meetings and let directives flow down to the scrubs that way.
I can’t fathom why he’d feel the need for this message to get out, as there don’t appear to be any consequences for him for anything at all, so… I’ll leave that to others.
That’s because your online life is a bubble and you’re not getting at all a realistic picture of the world.
I’ve reactivated my X account a couple of days ago just to see what’s happening. It’s a ghost town. None of the private accounts I’ve followed posted in the last 12 months. Granted, that’s probably because I’m in a non-fascist bubble. But posts from official accounts also have a lot less engagement although there’s a huge mass of bots posting conspiracy theories and all the ads I saw where scams
Dose that mean people are leaving faster than they can spin up bots?
Bots are costing more than the people the bots are spamming. Spam bots are probably spamming other spam bots more than they are spamming real people.
I hope it dies faster!
Lmao how can we cost them more money.
Start associating the site with Nazism, and the people still using the site as condoning Nazism.
Congrats, you just validated more potential Nazis to join the far right
Nah.
I’m saying that they should be blamed for condoning Nazism; not that they are themselves Nazi. The difference is important here because one does not automatically mean the other.
Also, the ones that are validating people to join the alt right are the people already in the alt right. Not the ones saying “you muppet you’re helping those fuckers by staying in this shithole”.
Frivolous lawsuits
Abandon the platform. All none open source social media is cancer
Never used it.
Yeah, most of us have never used it lol. How else? Ideas, anyone? Maybe a demand for our data en mass?
Grok probably
I mean honestly the Reddit boycott of Twitter might actually be pretty significant if the major sports Subs keep it up.
overpay (by a lot) for the company.
a bazillion stupid-ass decisions.
chase users away.
chase advertisers away.
the stupid rebranding.
can’t make money. :::shocker:::
the ‘richest’ guy in the world whining about not making more. fuck off, old spice.
You could also argue the price was worth the political influence it has given him. Probably made more money in other areas due to owning it.
definitely, getting tangled in politics and buying the white house definitely paid for twitter.
He didnt buy twitter to own it, he bought twitter to destroy it. Gradually scattering the users onto their respective echo chamber platforms and controling the mainstream narrative as they do so.
That won’t stop him from lording it over and blaming his subordinates as if it were personally their faults.
Don’t forget doing Nazi salutes in front of the world’s cameras.
Tesla and X (and probably SpaceX) would be so much better off without him. More Luigis please.
Musk should decide that X is most important, leave Tesla and spacex to fully commit to X, and then X will inevitably crash into the ground.
I sincerely doubt they were “barely breaking even”. That was just trying to save face. And the email was sent to employees “this month”, and before his open display of hatred, I’d imagine, after which there has been an even bjgger Xodus.
I’d bet dollars to doorknobs that the end of the line for Twitter is just around the corner.
Doesn’t matter, it did what he needed it to do.
Users seem to hate xwastika
Weird!
Someone should mass reply: that means Musk is failing as a leader.
Gee I wonder why.
It’s almost as if national socialism was bad for business.Oh no! I did not-zee see that coming.
My heart goes out to him. ✋
Just wait until the Nazism finally catches up with Tesla.
You mean he’s not a genius businessman?
