Your CEO could never!? @jack is a visionary who led our company with empathy, humility, and heart. Most of all he is just an incredible human! Grateful I had an opportunity to serve under his leadership and be inspired by his purpose. ??? #ThankYouJack pic.twitter.com/OVBF8WQcV3

"What makes Twitter such a baffling company is that its cultural impact so outweighs its financial results; last Q, Twitter’s $1.3b in revenue = 4.4% of Facebook's $29b, and yet you can make the case that Twitter’s overall impact on the world is larger."https://t.co/g6q1VCPUkZ

Never seen a graph describe so eloquently how the tech bros who disrupted without any conscience during the early 2000/2010’s with the deluded grandeur of techno-utopianism learned absolutely nothing. https://t.co/I1gjIPy8pz pic.twitter.com/UXbVhLgH6d

"Running a giant social media company is—by the looks of it —pretty miserable . . . The cool kids no longer want to work for you—they’re busy flipping NFTs and building DeFi apps in web3—and regulators are breathing down your neck."https://t.co/nYoXis5lxa
"There’s a joke about Dorsey that says everyone at Twitter thought he was working more on Square, and everyone at Square thought he was working more on Twitter.” https://t.co/fKDTnzZLcm

Twitter was essential to @Ayjchan, #DRASTIC, and others uncovering what we have so far about the #OriginOfCovid, when other platforms such as Facebook and reddit were censoring such work.

Hopefully this doesn't lead to a harmful change in Twitter's content policies. https://t.co/AEoU4sTDj0
“But Twitter under Dorsey has suffered from a comparable lack of focus…People who worked with him directly, when I would ask recently how engaged Dorsey was with the core product, would tell me that they didn’t know.” $TWTR https://t.co/SWlL2TktMO

„Still, there’s something to be said for knowing when to pass the torch. And after he has seen what it’s like to wind up in the center of power, it’s hard to fault Mr. Dorsey for wanting to decentralize the internet, starting with himself.“ https://t.co/Slzlt1F7tp

@kevinroose writes that Jack Dorsey, like other founders of today’s biggest tech giants, are growing tired of managing their empires, which are burdened by political controversy and hard-to-fix problems. Now they are passing the torch. https://t.co/wmPCb4iLmO

"Twitter has one of the most powerful moats on the Internet. Sure, Facebook has ubiquity, Instagram has influencers, and TikTok has homegrown stars, but I find it easier to imagine any of those fading before Twitter’s grip on information flow disappears." https://t.co/4q3IJgUgzJ

This paragraph (from a column I wrote yesterday about Jack leaving Twitter) is my nutshell argument for why more people should be taking crypto seriously. It's 2010 again, only this time with money instead of media. pic.twitter.com/s7Hu3BhxAB

Twitter’s value comes from content and if it went paid it would lose a lot of that content. People would just recreate those habits elsewhere (see Clubhouse style rooms on Twitter Spaces).

The chance that it’s retain users if it became a paid app is 0%.https://t.co/8WbPOeiE5d

Jack Dorsey's resignation is another sign that the industry now views the massive social networks it built over the last two decades as buggy "legacy applications" mired in annoying social problems. https://t.co/WzQ4ai1cTZ
