The billionaire owner and CEO Linda Yaccarino dialed in from out of town, vaguely touting new features that will roll out in the coming months.


There is very little surprising about Elon Musk’s methods of running X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, seemingly into the ground. A year after Musk officially took over the platform, both he and recently installed X CEO Linda Yaccarino held a joint all-hands Thursday to address some of the changes at the company and suggested that X might be a new financial platform.

Neither Musk himself nor Yaccarino showed up, according to a report from Fortune Thursday. The two executives dialed in remotely from Austin and New York City, respectively, citing an anonymous source within the company. Musk and Yaccarino skipping out on an in-person appearance during the all-hands comes after the former demanded employees return to office 40 hours per week last November, according to Insider, in one of his first sweeping changes as owner.

      I wonder how many of those are still the case now? When he first took over, that was absolutely huge deal, since it’s extremely difficult to find another job as a visa worker. But it’s not impossible and Twitter employees would have very strong resumes. It’s been so long that I suspect many of those who wanted to leave could have found another company willing to sponsor by now.

      There’s definitely Musk fanboys in the company. There’s no shortage of people, especially the “tech bro” type, who somehow still adore Musk.
