Counterpoint. They were writing too much code that didn’t add value to X, according to Elon, and were fired.

Elon probably unplugged a whole datacenter again.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, suffered global outages for just over an hour on Thursday.
According to Downdetector.com, which tracks outages by collating status reports, more than 47,000 US users faced access issues with X and X Pro.
The hashtag #TwitterDown started trending within minutes of reports of the outages emerging.
Since Mr Musk bought the platform, it has been suffering from a loss of advertising revenue.
The company has since sued a left-leaning pressure group, Media Matters for America, which made the accusation.
Last month, Elon Musk slammed advertisers that left X, saying they would kill the social media platform.

And nothing of value was lost.

Except for a missed opportunity to push for users to jump ship to a Mastodon instance.

That will come with time. As more companies embrace it, more people will follow.
