I still believe Musk is trying to make a better place, yes he is making mistakes but inevitably Twitter will become a better place. For reddit however I kind of don’t know. It’s another thing kiling 3rd apps was actually inevitable. After all like Spez said the apps were printing money for their devs. The best solution was to talk with the Devs and come up with a suitable solution aka price of api
It’s pretty clear now that Musk was almost certainly just a lucky moron with a big bank account for his previous successes. He’s completely misunderstood the value proposition of Twitter and has almost entirely destroyed that irreparably in a handful of months.
The only real alternative explanation for his actions now are down to the Saudi monarchy being heavily involved in helping him buy it in the first place. We know they have no real need for ROI, and we also know they very likely still have an axe to grind over the role Twitter played in helping people organise during the Arab Spring and similar uprisings.
So our options are, he’s a genuine moron with no idea how damaging his actions are or he’s a bought-and-paid-for asset and he’s destroying it to make some autocrats happy. Neither are going to make it a better place.

Spez is lying.
