The only feature that matters for any social media experience is the people who are on it. I'm amazed at how many technology leaders forget this and get distracted by the underlying tech, protocols, features, etc.

Elon is a great example. He thinks he bought a platform. But what he really bought was a community. And of the two, the community has degraded far more than the platform.

@mike I was saying this the others day too. IF/when Elon arrives at his X destination, it will not mark his genius or success. To get there, he will have destroyed a socially important platform that could/should have been significant for decades to come. Destroyed it with ignorance, not intelligence.
