I loved twitter.
Took me nearly a decade to figure out how to use it in a way that wasn’t shit terrible like most other social media. I stopped tweeting entirely. Stopped replying. No input. Only followed people I’m interested in professionally. If they start to regularly tweet about non-professional things, unfollow.
I would get exposed to interesting perspectives and new or old ideas about design.
Bummer to see it go, but there are other forums and either Elon will cool out or something will pop up to replace it.

- You actually can't call for violence, by law. At least not where I'm from.jagara

“Even assuming that firing half a company of many thousands is the right thing to do soon after an acquisition, it seems unlikely you could correctly identify which half in the span of a week.”
- Ken Kocienda, on Elon’s lack of strategy at Twitter
- grafician should be here any minute to mansplain how he knows more about working at tech company than ken kociendanb
- Waiting on you to confirm exactly how many ex-twitter people your company really hired (:grafician
- I'd assume the plan isn't to simply cut everything in half but close down branches and positions.spl33nidoru
- I’ll get back to you in a couple months. Btw we’re not hiring twitter people only because they’re from twitter. It is clear that Elon did not do a talent auditnb
- Which means there are a bunch of great talents in that group. But we’ll still assess and interview people before hiring. Of course.nb
