Nah that was the right call, again twitter was overstaffed ( way more than all the big tech companies ).
He wants to pursue this " battle for free speech " not sure where he wants to go with that but since the previous management department of twitter wasn't really building that.
So firing most ( if not all lol ) of them was justified, and on the developers part, the front end is not so complicated u just need some really good back ends
Him buying twitter and doing all these " crazy things " is getting a lot of attention and generating activity on twitter, he needs to ride that wave very fast so yeah he's pretty much in a startup phase, " we either work all day to pull it off or i just lost 44 Bil"
He also wants to build this " everything app " which is something i heard talking about for quite some time, i'm genuinely curious as a developer, we've had clients coming with this idea from time to time but when we gave them the estimate they thought we were crazy ( yeah it was a matter of working all day xD )
Yeah the guy is weird but cmon he's sending rockets to space, and wants to start the colonization of mars, that is QUITE the ambition, whatever he is trying to do with twitter i'm sure he's ALL IN in this ( cuz u have to be on that level )
This guy is pretty much a polititian man, the difference is that he's not elected by anyone so he owes nothing to no one but he has the " power " to influence the world to a certain degree.....

From what I heard it was on the verge of bankrupting when Musk took over and it's still losing millions daily but if Musk will crave to use it as a way to manipulate people, that could actually give him many benefits even if he will be forced to lose more billions in the process.
The issue could emerge if the platform becomes a hivemind of Nazis and bigots, in that case that app might end up becoming literal trash and that could backfire for him reputation wise.
