Such as women.

His whole journey of just recreating 2013 Twitter from first principles is so funny to watch.

One thing we didn't really talk about in the first section of today's episode, and we're sort of landing the plane here, listener, I swear, is like...

All of these different apps tried to become TikTok.

You know, around 2022, 2023, you get the rise of Instagram reels, Facebook reels, X4U page.

Everything is a short form video app.

And now they're all sort of tied to that.

The world is clearly shifting.

The culture is clearly shifting.

Things are changing.

And so all of them are kind of in a similar death spiral at the moment.

So you're just not getting like...

new stuff really and so you're not getting new main characters also because algorithmic feeds don't really surface like a goofy post from a random person as well as like a bunch of like super online weirdos might find like a person to go after like it's it's different the mechanics are different

yeah and that's something that like really can't be like fixed or ignored like it just there's a moment where we all go like i'm not checking in on foursquare again yeah and you don't ever do it again like it obviously instagram like creates a check-in feature that you can use and you're like cool i'll check it over here and then you're like no i'm actually kind of done checking it yeah

And it's like, we can do our TikTok.

It's like, cool, I'll go and do my TikTok over there.

And then one day you're like, I'm just not checking any of them.

Same with, I think, like, here's my Twitter clone.

It's like, cool, I can move my Twitter followers over.

You know what?
