> Hasn’t Twitter moved on to becoming the everything app like WeChat for video like YouTube?

I am having difficulty parsing this. What do you mean?

X the everything app. It’s very different from Threads

Yea I got that, and we use WeChat pretty heavily in my household, but the bit about YouTube at the end is what I can't parse

It's one of those awkward cases where it was _probably_ sarcasm (though parseable only to someone who pays way too much attention to this stuff) but might be sincere Musk-cultism.

tl;dr - Musk has at various times claimed that he will turn Twitter into a WeChat-esque thing, or into a Youtube competitor. None of this has gone anywhere because, come on, obviously not.

It’s the largest exit in startup history. How they describe their business is interesting to a hacker like me. Don’t get distracted by their political activism.

Threads or even Facebook aren’t really competitors with X Corp businesses. The business model articulated has been video with revenue share and eventually the everything app. YouTube and WeChat are similar examples.

I think anyone reading analysis about Threads isn’t much deeper in than I. But I admittedly am too online, I call it the “funny pages.”

I think it's sarcasm
