Twitter reminds me of Yahoo of yesteryears and its slow demise. Yahoo didnt just “die”, but the road to its death was slow and jarring. At different times it felt like Yahoo was coming back, but it never materialized into anything meaningful enough to save the sinking ship. Here’s the thing- Its not like Yahoo did not try to turn things around, but once a core group of people left, it did not matter whether Yahoo pivoted to media (oh they tried hard!), or Internet town square or whatever BS they could come up with. It was slow, it was painful, but eventually Yahoo became so irrelevant that today’s generation may not even know how big Yahoo was just 10-11 years back. The only change in Twitter taking a similar trajectory downward is basically how much damage Twitter will do on its way out. Its going down for sure. It may take 3 years or 7 years, but it will be irrelevant to every one except a small subset of people. Its up to people to decide to sink or swim, but the ship is going down sooner or later.
