It's arguably depreciating in value faster than a new car. One of Elmo's worst judgement calls (and that's saying a lot). Altman jabbed at Elmo and offered 9billion for X, 1/4th the price Elmo paid.

It's kind of hilarious watching the piranhas go at each other:

It arguably got him to be effectively an unelected President (at least for now), the investment has largely paid off scarily.

For twitter as a business? Awful.

It's not related to engineering issues but rather the ideological shift and the fact that it became a blatant propaganda machine for its new overlord.

Ehh, as a propaganda tool it would be more useful to not have a hard login wall, which was allegedly implemented due to engineering challenges continuing to operate Twitter at its former scale. So the engineering issues are even limiting its new goals.

"Is a good propaganda tool" doesn't keep a website up, engineers do. It's losing money because a bunch of major advertisers pulled out, not because there's not enough engineers to keep it online.

I use it daily and can't remember the last outage.
