there is no fidelity
Crawford took great initiative in the new “hardcore” Twitter style that Elon Musk implemented .
She made headlines when she cited a picture of her sleeping in the company’s offices. She pointed out that “doing difficult things requires sacrifice”, so she strove to release the best product for users.
Elon Musk commissioned him to launch Twitter Blue, the $8 subscription model that allows you to edit tweets, write long tweets, and have the blue verification check . However, his launch was not the best and, so far, does not meet the billionaire’s expectations .
Platformer reported her dismissal this weekend and she herself has confirmed it through her social networks.
“The worst thing you could say when you see me go all-in on Twitter 2.0 is that my optimism or hard work was a mistake. Those who jeer and jeer are necessarily on the sidelines and not in the arena. I am deeply proud of the team for building through so much noise and chaos, ”she referred to in her personal account.
The worst take you could have from watching me go all-in on Twitter 2.0 is that my optimism or hard work was a mistake. Those who jeer & mock are necessarily on the sidelines and not in the arena. I’m deeply proud of the team for building through so much noise & chaos. 💙
