Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll
It's instructive to contrast what other billionaires did with media properties they owned:- Jeff Bezos personally bought Washington Post but he left it alone and let the editors run it.  What Jeff did do was invest some money into the IT department to modernize the workflow tools (metrics dashboards, etc) for journalists.  He stayed out of the decisions of what stories get run on the front page.- Rupert Murdoch owns Wall Street Journal but when Elizabeth Holmes asked him to squash negative stories about Theranos, he refused and stayed out of it.  He let his editors run the stories even though it embarrassed him because he was a big investor.Both those guys are more detached from those media outlets and don't meddle in it day to day.What tech people like Paul Graham and others were hoping was for Elon to apply his scientific first principles type of thinking that he demonstrated previously at SpaceX+Tesla to Twitter.  E.g. Tesla A.I. competency to clean up the bots and make the platform better.Instead, Elon let the Twitter monster abuse his ego and his reputation as a savior is ruined.Best thing Elon should have done was to focus only on the technical aspects of Twitter and let some more level-headed less-emotional people manage the editorial aspects.Hopefully, Elon notices that we don't have endless HN and reddit front page articles about Rupert Murdoch's jet.
