Twitter has become even more boring after being acquired by Elon Musk. I never imagined Elon Musk would dare to take a policy that seemed too forced, firing most of the employees and then replacing them with Bots was not a good idea. Bots are not able to think like humans, bots are just human-made robots that are no smarter than humans. The main thing that is the most boring in my opinion when the logo (Blue bird) which is very iconic with Twitter is replaced with the symbol or the letter "X", I feel there is something different with Twitter after the logo is changed.

Major changes that occurred on Twitter to make user interest in Twitter began to decline. If Elon Musk doesn't try to restore Twitter to its pre-acquisition identity, then he will feel the failure of the strategy implemented. Elon Musk must not be selfish with the rights he has on Twitter, he must realize that without using Twitter he cannot develop. So, comfort and convenience must always be prioritized so that Twitter users increase. That's how to do business properly.

As far as I know, these are his latest tweets on Twitter;

Quote
On August 26, he tweeted that he is "super bullish on China" and that he plans to "spend more time there".
On August 25, he tweeted that he is "working on finishing version 1.0 of Twitter Blue". Twitter Blue is a premium subscription service that offers features such as undo tweets, ad-free browsing, and custom emoji.
On August 24, he tweeted that he is "considering adding an edit button to Twitter". This has been a highly requested feature by Twitter users for many years.
On August 23, he tweeted that he is "looking into" ways to make Twitter more profitable.
On August 22, he tweeted that he is "excited" about the future of Twitter.

But I can't see what he said on Twitter because there are many Elon Musk accounts, and I can't determine which one he's really using. All I know is that he is doing everything to make Twitter apps transparent to the communities here.

Maybe Elon thinks that when it becomes more transparent to people, he will be more embraced and trusted in this matter, so he thought of this style that he is planning. And if there is something that Hel did wrong, perhaps it was the subscription for every Twitter user, in my opinion.

 It's quite funny how you came to the conclusion that Elon is looking to sell Twitter after he laid of 80% of his staff. The platform is now boring and seemingly lacking the main purpose for which it was bought doesn't make for enough reason to sell. The billionaire has been known to be impulsive when it comes to his business and if one begins to question where he went wrong in his purchase of Twitter? For me it would be trying to think he can control public opinion and freedom of speech.

 The thing with most of these billionaires is that there's a certain peak they'd attain, they'd begin to view others as worthless. According to one of the reasons he said he bought Twitter for was to fix it. I'm sure he meant in a negative way because honestly Twitter has been struggling to be as interesting and free to use as when it was under Jack Dorsey

The honest truth is that Twitter has not been the same since Elon Musk bought it, and as a matter of fact, the guy decreased it in value and users due to his speeches, actions and inactions. As it is now, many people writing there are doing so because they do not have a choice, Twitter desperately need a viable rival. Threads could have done this but Mark Zuckerberg did what people see as "too cheap," it's nothing to me but forcing people to have an Instagram account before they can access the app made me uninstalled it from my gadget. I don't like people making things look like a compulsion for any reason.

As for X, it might continue to fail as a microblogging app under the ownership of Musk, but it might be a good earning source for him if he eventually turns it into a financial app as intended.

He sacked almost all the employees ,replaced them with bots and now he is trying   to sell it . Don't mistake me I'm not trying to criticise the dude but i don't get why this happened for real his plan was nice trying to reduce cost of work . But what went wrong


This is part of the challenges of Twitter. Elon musk to me was hasty to try to cut down cost by laying off old hands whose wisdom and expertise was highly needed. He wanted to introduce himself as being capable to run social media with bot system just like his background of SpaceX and Tesla. So he needs to retrace the all business idea to make profit rather than the primary public interest of Twitter, before Elon musk Twitter was barely known with all the financial news around it. He needs to take a clue from Mark zugerberg on this.

Twitter usage is really going down I think the app is more boring . What do you think we all know elon this might be another business Strategy right Undecided
In a direct answer to your question about "what mistakes did Musk make in Twitter?" I can answer you simply: The biggest mistake Musk made after the platform purchase deal was that he appointed himself directly as its CEO. All the decisions that followed were because the owner of the platform imagined himself capable of running it despite his lack of the necessary experience. And if he really intends to sell the platform today, then this may be the wisest decision, confirming his inability to continue management without the necessary experience.

You remind me of a sports fan who, watching a game from the couch, eating chips and drinking beer, yells at the TV that the football player kicked badly, gave the wrong pass and generally ruined the match because he... a professional beer bottle emptier... would do it better.

As for the statement that the application is more boring, I would like to remind you that the content on it is created by the community, not employees. Employees were supposed to take care of the stability of the platform (I did not notice any damage), filtering inappropriate content (I noticed an improvement). In my opinion, laying off 80% of employees is essential when taking over such a large corporation, because it usually turns out that they were spending most of their time in work by drinking coffee and there was no one to supervise it.

One day in the life of twitter employee

In the end all humans and including us in the forum must get used to every job being replaced by robots and especially in several countries this has been tried on several vital aspects that force humans to evolve with existing technological sophistication. I have no reference at this time regarding Elon Musk's move to try to sell platform X which initially had quite a large number of users and whether the bots he used to replace employees have become more effective or not.

One thing I know about Elon Musk and he is one of the rare species because every time he makes noise in online media there is an impact and even his marketing skills are not in doubt. So let's see what references are trying to be issued at this time and why he dared to take such a big step that some people might think is an inappropriate step in doing business.

I'm not sure if it is known news or just hearsay, but I have yet to hear any news or information regarding Elon Musk actively selling Twitter (now rebranded as X). As far as I know and based on his recent tweets, he is still gathering opinions and making public statements about possible changes he will add to the platform, like removing the Block feature from the messaging section. If you can, please link any article or news you have read this about so we have a proper source unless this is a personal claim.
