> On the earnings call, Musk told X employees that his efforts to turn Twitter into an everything app will one day "exceed" China's everything app (called WeChat) and is happening at "the fastest rate of innovation maybe ever for any Internet company,”
Oh how the turn tables! We are going to get “new WeChat”.
Meta is better positioned to do this. Is Whatsapp not already used more extensively outside of the US as an everything style app? Anyways, I’m not going to put money and use a shitty app with no customer service.
We have existing options and don’t need a centralized app. China likes control and centralization so WeChat is a picked winner. X is not going to get picked and elevated by the US government.
