New thought on Musk proposal. Reason it seems like a bad idea to me is that at least my corner of twitter seems 2-3 years ahead of the zeitgeist as a cultural technology, and this is partly because the governance has been benign neglect allowing wisdom of crowd pockets to exist

I suspect active Big Man attention in Save the World mode will slow Twitter down to the Speed of Musk. Musk is faster than most individuals but not faster than Twitter (or Reddit or any good hive mind past critical size). Note that Reddit has also had leadership struggles.

Not clear to me that Musk won't enshrine a sort of benign neglect at a deeper level

he could, if he loosened up some of the 3rd party dev restrictions that twitter put in place after the early years of growth… that action at the time did active harm to the twitter hive mind at the time

Not sure I understand. 🤔
Are you saying that Musks proposal getting accepted would lead to “wisdom of crow pockets“ getting shut down?
Can you help me understand this better?
