BREAKING: X CEO Linda Yaccarino Steps Down One Day After Elon Musk’s Grok AI Bot Went Full Hitler
-
She was a DEI hire anyway, right folks?
Is it still a DEI hire if it's also a glass cliff?

This sketch was about Facebook but it's also relevant to Twitter
Actually more relevant now, considering the ending
"Go to the site where Nazi's scream at you". It's talking about moving from facebook to twitter.

Literally haven't heard anything that this person did as CEO in the two years since she joined.
she was hired to fix the advertiser exodus. Good reason to quit is this scandal would hurt her bonuses/job function.

bluesky is populated "enough".
I do think that bluesky has a ton of momentum right now and is a viable alternative. But the thing about microblogging sites is that if the specific people you want to follow aren't on them, there's not really a substitute. I know I've heard people say that, for example, a lot of japanese game developers are still primarily on twitter (I've never been a twitter/bsky enjoyer so I can't speak to it personally).

I think this every single time I see news about that website. Like what the fuck is possibly on there that justifies using that piece of shit platform? Insanity.
Unfortunately I think people don’t care how the sausage is made. It has porn and
racistedgy memes so they’ll keep coming back. -

Thats because all of the heinously stupid things were done by the previous CEO.
-
I'm not convinced she actually did anything as "CEO." I'm sure that Elon just told her what to do/say and she made it seem like they were her ideas. There's no way she had any ability to make any real changes or do any real work.
Thats one of the big problems with working at one of musks companies

I can't believe people still use Twitter.
I keep getting arguments from peoplee about this, even on Bluesky.
Apparently it's too much to expect people to inconvenience themselves and not follow their favorite musicians or whatever.
If the vast majority of people can't be assed to take the absolutely easiest step possible to fight (or avoid supporting) fascists/Nazis, then we really are fucked.
Same thing with how people could very, very easily choose just NOT to buy another Nazicar. Yet 90% if Americans still bought one last month as a year earlier. It's just about the smallest sacrifice I can think of - just buying a DIFFERENT car that you might not like quite as much.
And I think the fact that we are where we are right now also confirms the problem.

I feel like the common use cases are:
- you’re MAGA nut
- you’re not a MAGA nut, but you want to see what the loonies are talking about
- You’re a marketer or influencer and you know MAGA nuts also buy shit
I'm guessing also - 3b. and you know they buy stupid shit

You can mimic the feel of Twitter by taking reddit threads and cutting them at the most popular reply (Reddit already does this), and then reversing the order. Now the "best" content is front and center and the conversation / context is in the background. Users don't have to go through the tediousness of a discussion before experiencing the sheer joy of a witty response. The emotions come faster and more consistently.

I dont really care that the average person still uses twitter... What's INFURIATING is that gov't agencies are still using that shit. Why are important pieces of information still being shared on twitter??
My friend works for a local town that has a presence on fb, twitter, and inatgarm. The main reason he says they haven't moved to platforms like blsky is because as a government entity they are required to be able to archive all online communications for situations like a Right-to-know request but run into the issue that these small platforms aren't supported by the archiving software so they can't move away completely until then. Fun fact: 1st amendment prevents the government pages from removing or hiding comments you leave on their posta

I find it much more shocking he’s got a woman running it.

For me, it's the best place for quick sports updates. Many writers have moved to bluesky, but many more have not. Sports Twitter is the sole reason I use it.
This right here summarizes the problem.
"Yeah it's full of Nazis and has had a big hand in the downfall of modern America, but my convenience!"

I'm surprised he didn't have a baby with her.

Lots of people addicted. Never had it, thought it was stupid when it came out.
