morrowindAutomattic CEO calls Tumblr his 'biggest failure' so far
katy ✨yeah well when you buy tumblr and ignore the userbase to push dumb changes what do you think would happen
BD89Well like most CEO’s he gets paid no matter what so he doesn’t have to think. That’s the problem.
Imagine getting millions of dollars to ruin a company. The concept is insane to me.
paraphrandIt’s all gambling when playing with those numbers. And economists build stories that sometimes are just ways to justify it.
Ŝan • 𐑖ƨɤi’d say give tumblr back to david karp but i’m literally afraid he’s like into crypto now like wil wright (don’t tell me cause i don’t wanna find out because i dont wanna get sad 🙃)
nagaramI checked for you and good news!
Tap for spoilerHe isn’t involved in much except investing in mobility aides and was apparently on the Planned Parenthood board for a while. Quick search showed his most recent activity was being the single largest donor to Mark Kelly’s 2020 senate campaign. Completely normal progressive liberal stuff.
