      Hmmm, let’s see.


      • Failing company rooted in a more traditional framework they’re trying to break out of

      • Said company has no idea what they’re doing and keep doing ridiculous things to “break out of” traditional framework

      • Keeps doing things no user/customer asked for

      • Said company has no real effective long-term game-plan and keeps changing tack because of bad previous choices

      • There’s a good chance the company could go completely bust because of lack of good business plan and solid leadership

        I’m pretty sure the advertisers - their real customers - asked them to show more ads.

          Huffman is ostensibly following Elon Musk’s lead, and last I checked, Musk had pretty effectively chased away a massive amount of what one might call “rational” advertisers. Reddit is absolutely following a similar path, and soon enough there will be advertisers who no longer want to be associated with a toxic brand.

      It takes a few weeks for options to become available, but they will.

      If you have a shit ton of money you can buy shorts directly.
