What did elon do wrong in Twitter

[Ravichnadra]

Well - Now Twitter has become a Po*n. hub. He allowed anyone to post anything there was no policy.

Elon musk should fix it and also remove bots.

And now there is a new account on Twitter. It is called X payments and people think it is the new payments that Elon Musk is tlaking about.
If it is for crypto then I think we are going to see Doge first. Now they have all the money transfer licenses so it is going to be not so long more.

I didn't hear such news in the social media and even in the national newsline though I am not a fan to X. X blocked my account when I strongly believed that I didn't do anything wrong so I am not seeing and hearing any news from X or formally known as Twitter. But recently I heard that Elon Musk using AI in must of his works.

And one thing I noticed is that people are using X more than when it was in Twitter.  And guy was telling me that it is because of the payment people received when your likes or impressed are more than  one million. Well I am not interested in that stuff. So I don't even bother to open another account.

What's wrong with social network "X"? The winning back of positions after drawdown and purchase is quite successful. Musk will soon become a little richer. This is a natural development of events after the acquisition. It is necessary to organize work in the company properly. Yes, it took a lot longer than planned, as I understand it, but the result is obvious. I would now wait for a corrective movement and look for a good entry point into a position to buy shares.

Twitter is no longer publicly traded so you won’t be able to buy any shares unless you know Elon personally. I'm not sure it will ever be a good buy again even if they do become listed in the future. I see a lot of ads for crypto scams, which is likely not a sign of having healthy revenue. They will have to look at other sources of income besides ads. There is speculation regarding X Payments, but seeing how poorly Twitter is being run I wouldn’t hold my breath that it will live up to expectations.

Well now Elon Musk is going to be building a 'Trust and Safety center of excellence in the state of Texas. He will hire 100 full time employees to enforce child safety laws.
It is because he was criticized for cutting back on trust and safety operations. The announcement was made just a few days before CEO Linda Yaccarino is going to meet with the Senate Judiciary Committee for online child safety.

Wait a minute I used to think online is the next generation if your not going online your toast but elon musk just lost funds in Twitter trying to take it fully online. He sacked almost all the employees ,replaced them with bots and now he is trying   to sell it . Don't mistake me I'm not trying to criticise the dude but i don't get why this happened for real his plan was nice trying to reduce cost of work . But what went wrong
Twitter usage is really going down I think the app is more boring . What do you think we all know elon this might be another business Strategy right

Elon musk try to eliminate people he thinks he don’t need on Twitter anymore and have replace them with people he feels is competent enough to handle the new idea that he have to bring to the platform.

When he started doing the new changes on Twitter it appear that it Twitter was losing value but from the way it’s going now the now X is doing well and their a lot more of engagement their on X which was formally known as Twitter lot of features and have been made available and the influencer their are now being paid for making a contributive post on X and if you have enough engagement you might likely start earning from it.

early 2024 OP was online but did not respond about the data and facts between elon musk and twitter, has OP realized that what was written was only an invalid issue and until now twitter is fine and even more advanced. If elon does that, of course there are benefits that are taken, one of which is more efficient and faster in terms of access and system maintenance, I admit that twitter is superior and can be said to be the best and stable. There are rarely cases that harm account owners or everything that is caused. In terms of ui/ux ellon is very smart to pack more extetic. I don't see Elon struggling and taking his own path in continuing Twitter, the fact is that Twitter is still the most comfortable and easy to access, which is what makes me different from other social media.

X(twitter) is no longer a public company but is private. It's true that X is in some trouble not making enough money to sustain itself as many of its traditional advertisers has boycotted Elon. But Elon has a record of turning a dying company to a leader and twitter still has a huge userbase and Elon Musk has deep pockets to run X for years without a profit and try different things.
There are news of X going to implement an in app payment system that would also accept crypto as a depositing option. With different, innovative and radical experiments X could really be the all in one app for the whole world.

agreed with this, twitter even after acquisition still the most polished social media there is, right now mabye the valuation tanks but so does with meta's stuff, literally facebook, its crappy UI/UX these days are no help to the users, if I were to choose a social media i will definitely choose twitter because its just better also more modern, the recent meta released platform thread even getting forgotten by people.
twitter under elon is fine, he just did some company efficiency improvement by maybe firing the unstrategic position but overall its good sailing with twitter.
even more obvious with the fact that people can't get enough of those glowy badges for the sake of elevating their account worth.
its really good strategy that even instagram imitates it if im not mistaken.

[mich]

Well Elon Musk is not the richest man in the world any more. And it is not because of the things he did wrong for Twitter.
He did lose more then $18 Billion cause of the price of tesla stock dropping. So now he is worth $204.7 Billion. French billionaire Bernard Arnault and his family is worth $207.6 Billion.

I would say that it's pretty common in tech companies to see employees only working for 4 hours a day and play the rest of the time on Playstation or do some other fun activities. If you go in warehouses, you'll see people working every second of their 8 hour shift. So, this brings you a clear picture that people in Twitter were having more fun and less work, so, Elon fired most of the staff and instead of fun, every employee is now pushed to work during their shift.

I think that the stupidest thing that Elon did with Twitter was badge subscription service. You just pay and get verified mark, that leads to many scams and also doesn't make any sense, it was way better without them.

[Miles2006]

I hardly use X formerly known as Twitter but I observed something earlier last year the app has lost the structure ever since Musk bought Twitter, although not everyone will judge what Musk is doing and sometimes things have to under go changes, bringing his own policy is accurate but it seems the policy has started affecting the app just like advertisers and marketers are reported leaving X and by the look of things it seems Musk doesn't need them due to his influence and money.

[WillyAp]

but it seems the policy has started affecting the app just like advertisers and marketers are reported leaving X and by the look of things it seems Musk doesn't need them due to his influence and money.

Name a few advertisers who have left and did not come back, lets see if you can?

thats indeed the implication that comes after elon just decided to make badge payable now many people are taking advantage of it not to mention twitter is by far the worst place ever for scamming case, there are simply too many scams there, every tweet literally filled with so many scams and yes most of these scams even go as far as buying some badges, i do agree that its really bad situation out there in twitter, even elon attempt of blocking bots that are sometime used for scamming seems useless.
personally i've worked in the it field and I think elon just trying to maximize that work force paying lower allocation for salary for the employee when pumping that working hours up.
overall its just really difficult situation in my perspective not to mention those many advertisers that abandoned twitter due to certain problems.

[3kpk3]

Anyone with a half-decent brain knows for a fact that Musk messed up royally with Twitter(X is such a stupid name btw) in more ways than one and only his fans would say otherwise frankly speaking.

The losses that he incurred from this site probably won't even put a dent on his wealth, but it certainly made it pretty clear to everyone that he isn't some perfect genius. No one is!

[smelody]

Legendary people have various kind of tachnic for increase of business. Elon is one of the legend of world. He is the CEO and lead designer of Space X CEO and product architect of Tesla Inc. CEO in Neura link and founder of The Boring Company.
His thinking about twitter may ahead a long although seems negative but hope it will be getting positive in future. as a businessman he will not thinking without business and business. After bought twitter he change most of the strategy and logo its was his prudence.

[Moeda]

Wait a minute I used to think online is the next generation if your not going online your toast but elon musk just lost funds in Twitter trying to take it fully online. He sacked almost all the employees ,replaced them with bots and now he is trying   to sell it . Don't mistake me I'm not trying to criticise the dude but i don't get why this happened for real his plan was nice trying to reduce cost of work . But what went wrong
Twitter usage is really going down I think the app is more boring . What do you think we all know elon this might be another business Strategy right

When Elon Musk first changed the name of Twitter to X, since then Twitter has looked unattractive. Twitter is synonymous with tweets, Twitter is not synonymous with X. In fact, I have criticized that since Elon proposed the name X for Twitter. And until now we are not used to saying X as the name of Twitter.

This is the same as us inviting people to change the name Bitcoin to Bigcoin. Even though the name has changed, our habits of referring to Bitcoin are difficult to change.

In terms of using robots or bots, I don't think it's as perfect as what humans do. Bots are human creations, of course those who create are greater than creation.

In my opinion, he is too ambitious with media platforms, he even asked Twitter users about the Facebook platform whether it was suitable to buy. Maybe he thinks that by controlling the media, he will control the world. That's just my assumption.

What is less interesting in my opinion is changing the concept of the blue tick as a sign that an official account can be purchased. So that anyone has the opportunity to get a blue tick. Previously, blue ticks were only available on government accounts, accounts of world figures, and accounts that had a lot of followers through a verification process, not instantly.

But is anyone still willing to buy it again? My assumption is no. Aside from the high price, there are a lot of changes already happening to the X platform.

to be honest, i'm still used to the term twitter, rather than the term X. one of the mistakes that elon musk made in my opinion was changing the name of twitter to X.

but with elon managing the x platform, i see X.COM becoming more futuristic and it is even reported that the ai grok chatbot will soon appear in premium X user accounts.

elon is a visionary person, he doesn't choose X carelessly, he made a big breakthrough by buying X from its old owner but a lot of adult content was uncensored on the x platform, in some countries this is a concern.

[mich]

Well now Well Elon Musk received a money transfer license is the state of Nevada. That is the now 18 states he has this license in.
I do think it now is a only some time before we see money transfer on X. He been talking about that and we will see what he does have planned.

Elon Musk bought Twitter for such a huge amount of money that he must have had some plans of his own for this Twitter platform due to which he has laid off many executives and employees. If the platform is improved by the features that Emon Musk is currently adding to Twitter and the new rules that he is adding, we cannot criticize these things. Twitter is completely Elon Musk's own platform, so he can take any decision here. If we Twitter users don't like these new features or new updates, we can't use his platform, but we have nothing to say against his decision, nor will he change these things even if we do. If instead we were to buy such a platform for that amount of money, we might try to design our own platform like Milon Mask is currently doing.
