Go bankrupt, be unloaded from Musk's control in bankruptcy, be sold into some other investor scenario. Probably then it'll fizzle.

@aka_quant_noir Interesting! Yeah I feel like they will never be profitable under Musk's unstable leadership. With ad revenue only being sustainable if they don't scare off advertisers.

So, it's more a question of how soon, rather than if. But I do hope it gets sold into a situation where it could be modeled off Mastodon. For the sake of all the indie artists that have built up a presence there.

@AlanAster By the time Musk's influences are removed (and all his nasty investors' investments are zeroed out) they'll be unloading Twitter for maybe half a bil. Musk may lose his other investments too to pay off those investors. Who knows who will end up with what?
@aka_quant_noir Yup! Can you believe that we live in a world where a mentally unstable person gets to blow $40 billion dollars to acquire a sinking ship, just to make it sink even faster? 😂
@AlanAster He's rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic so they're all on one side, so the boat splits and sinks faster.
