@nontechietalk based on his previous management style & the fact he was fired from the only software company he was CEO of before… honestly think Hanlon’s Razor applies "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." Though I suppose Clark’s Corollary does too… "any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice".

Apparently Twitter just gutted it’s sales & account management teams. You know, the teams that pull in & manage almost of their revenue via ads. Genius.
I ran some number for the subscription service…
To *simply just pay off the interest on their debt* Twitter needs 14.5 million subscribers to Blue.
To make up their ad revenue they need 53.1 million.
So, in total, they need 67.6 million subscribers. Basically, to be as popular a paid service as YouTube, who is 10x larger.
