Eh, he never had a vision or plan or strategy or business knowledge. He had a novel private project that became popular.

Did anyone who understood the issues at Twitter expect anything different from BlueSky?

He made a very useful product and didn't care about it making money.

Isn't that a hero?

I'm not faulting him for not making a lasting program. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses.

But if you're going to think he is a hero, then the overall result has to be evaluated.

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

No. He failed twice at making a successful program.
