this is exactly how I imagine the headquarter at #twitter looks like since #elonmusk took over.
And to be crystal clear about this: it's easy to make jokes about the train-wreck Musk created but we should not forget about the people he fired.
Some of them supported and worked for Twitter for over a decade and now they have to watch how their vision goes up in flames!
btw putting in a description for this GIF was the hardest thing ever but I tried 😂
"So how can I describe this?
An animated gif with a guy who holds some burning papers in his left hand, while a girl rides on an ostrich, another slides down the stairs, a guy stands on a desk and drinks out of a bowl while others seem to play the tag game.
Oh and all of this is happening in an office! "
@pallenberg hehe i had the same idea and faced the same challenge:

(side note: i think the toots in a seashell, but nevermind 😉)
- Advertisers left
- Half of the staff was fired
- Human rights department closed
- Heads of Information security, sales, privacy, compliance resigned
- Massive impact of fake accounts
- One even made Eli Lilly lose $16 billions of market cap
the list goes on and on. It's a massive dumpster fire and here's a good summary > https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/11/technology/elon-musk-twitter-takeover.html
@pallenberg hat die Chance auf ein neues, besseres Twitter. Ich weiß nicht, ob es Mastodon wäre… die technischen Herausforderungen sind enorm, wennschon an Trends, globale Suche usw. denke.
Auch CO2 Bilanz wäre interessant, da ja jeder Node einen Haufen Aufgaben redundant übernehmen muss, der sonst zentral optimiert wurde…
Bestreitet auch keiner ;)
CO2: Dennoch brauchen wir die Klimauswirkungen heute immer mit auf dem Radar.
Features: Wenn wir möchten, dass das keine Bubble bleibt, sondern wirklich etwas verändert... muss es auch der Vielzahl Nutzer taugen, nicht nur den "Early Adopters".
