Julian SanchezIt was clear from the jump Musk didn’t understand the site he’d bought, but I’m still a bit surprised he doesn’t grasp that journalists are the main reason Twitter was more relevant than any number of other similar platforms. Can easily imagine looking back on this as a tipping point.
Eric Gilmour@normative the value of twitter was always who was on it, the politicos, the journalists, the activists, etc. That and the real time nature of it. The tech is nothing special, nor is the # of users that great. But if you were into current events or politics you had to be there.
