As much as I detest Zuck, he was right about Twitter guys.

How? I would argue Jack is a much better 0 to 1 guy than Zuck and Zuck is a better 1 to N guy

Jack: Twitter, Square (Block), Bluesky/ATProto, bitchat (interesting), buzz (we will see). He just always fumbles the 1 to N (See Vine as an example)

Other Twitter Guy: Medium

Zuck: PHP dev, gets a hit, reads innovators dilemma... buys instagram. Everything else sucks.

Any context for the ignorant?

I know that he referred to Twitter as "it's as if they drove a clown car into a gold mine and fell in"

Yes Zuck because a product that didn't constantly fuck around with people's privacy settings and had real real-world uses... sure, money is all that matters. You would know. Your vision of the web isn't liberation, it's "dumb fucks", that's all you think people are

I'm old enough to remember when Twitter was a developer centric platform and were emphatically asking developers to use the API tk create products and help spread it. I then remember them rug pulling those APIs and screwing the devs because it interfered with them shuffling the feed and displaying ads and promoted tweets. That was well before Musk and I refuse to see Jack Dorsey as the good guy of tech he seems desperate to present himself as. Especially after he pretended AI was the reason for laying off half of the Block staff
