I just think the fact-checking thing was not as effective as Community Notes because it's not an internet-scale solution.

There weren't enough fact-checkers, and people didn't trust the specific fact-checkers.

You want a more robust system.

So I think where we got with Community Notes is the right one on that.

But my point on this was more that...

I think historically I probably deferred a little bit too much to either the media and kind of their critiques or the government on things that they did not really have authority over, but just as like a central figure.

Like I think we tried to build systems that were maybe we could not have to make all of the content moderation decisions ourselves or something.

And I guess I just think part of the growth process over the last,

10 years is just, okay, like we're a meaningful company.

We need to own the decisions that we need to make.

We should listen to feedback from people, but shouldn't defer too much to people who are not, who do not actually have authority over this because at the end of the day, we're like, we're in the seat and we need to like own the decisions that we make.

And so I think we probably, you know, it's been, it's been a maturation process and in some ways painful, but, but I, I, you know, I think we're, we're probably a better company for it.

It is really hard to know how that plays out.

I think we're probably in the early innings on that, and it's very hard to know.

I mean, it's probably got to be the case that the most leveraged thing that you do in a week is not the same thing each week, or else by definition, you should probably spend more than one hour doing that thing every week.

But yeah, I don't know.

It's part of the fun of both, I guess, this job, but also

the industry being so dynamic as like things really move around, right?

And like, and the world is very different now than it was at the beginning of the year, than it was six months into the middle of last year.

You know, I think a lot has sort of, has really advanced meaningfully.
