the company is going to go broke unless either he gets it profitable (not even close), he gets investors (good luck, especially because he's probably still valuing it at 44b), or he gives it a cash infusion.

it's kinda cool that the stupid bird website is an albatross around his neck.

ok i think this is still stupid, but not as stupid as i thought originally

so twitter parses news links into a "card" which sits beneath the post, and which has the picture, headline and a summary in it.



the card text is the bit he's getting rid of. so you can still have text, in the post part. will make it more annoying for news social media managers for like a week, until they come up with a workaround to automate the post text, basically reverse-engineering the card system.

anyway it's an incredibly dumb thing to fixate on, or to think that "fixing" will make anything better, in terms of income, user experience, or advertiser satisfaction. he's pretty dumb.

lmao in fact, because you can post stupid longass tweets now, this will probably make the average news article post take up more room on the screen, not less. may as well fill up the text limit with the headline, summary, and then throw some quotes and links and whatnot in there too.

he's so stupid, i am so mad.
