I am not a fan of Musk, but I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on this part. What I have trouble believing is that he will be willing and able to pick a lane on what Twitter should be. A successful Ad supported model, IMO requires moderation (and connected to this to grow the audience). Subscription might help with the bots, but it might drive users away as well, which I think makes the payment app less viable. Any of which needs to happen with a massive debt load which didn't exist prior.

My main point being that I think Musk greatly overestimates his own talents while also greatly underestimating the prior management/board. This ain't going to be easy.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
