@7666 You're correct, but... the key to success is not to be good, it's to be good enough. Like with evolution. The stuff Gab got away with (daily unscheduled downtime, hack of the entire database, and in one case a full WEEK of downtime) were overwhelmingly tolerated by the userbase, and especially the donors, because most of all they cared they could speak freely online. Elon doesn't have to be good at this point, he just has to keep she ship afloat at all and not do anything too drastic. The bar is low.
