only chance is if they go hardware i think (edit: have any of you heard of diversification)
what?
You know how some companies make vibrating dildos? Twitter should do that.
So it'll vibrate every time someone says "woke" on the platform?
They'll randomly go off in luggage so they get disposed of by a bomb squad?
Who said hardware can't be a valid recurring revenue model?
You know, like the Gavin Belson Signature Box III.
Hardware? Hardware was never profitable. It's a gateway to spending more money on proprietary software.
Unless you're Nintendo, they have their cake and eat it too.
IDK, I imagine they're online service is pretty profitable.
Hardware... what?
Chat, banking, stock trades, and lawn mowers
