Why would they? They are already crushing it with Last Week Tonight. No need to mess with a winning formula.

You need your full range of motion in the Delta quadrant.

Yeah, these are annoying as fuck and should not be exempt from noise ordinances. This isn't 1900, they all have phones they can get a notification if they really don't know what day it is.

Definitely less infinite scrolling, which has probably been good for me time management wise.

But yeah, just generally less content and posts. Also find myself ending up on reddit when doing internet searches for questions.

There has been value generated by Twitter that will outlive it though.

They established and refined an interface that other ventures like blue sky and mastodon are utilizing, and they delivered open source frameworks like Bootstrap will long outlive Twitter, and have brought value to the broader web development ecosystem.

The nice thing about our economic system is that value is rarely completely destroyed, the money he paid for Twitter didn't cease to exist, it went to former Twitter shareholders.

They may be using it in more productive ways than he ever would.
