Parler CEO Fired By 'Rebekah-Mercer-Controlled Board' | |
2021-02-04 | |
[ZeroHedge] "On January 29, 2021, the Parler board controlled by Rebekah Mercer
"Over the past few months, I've met constant resistance to my product vision, my strong belief in free speech and my view of how the Parler site should be managed. For example, I advocated for more product stability and what I believe is a more effective approach to content moderation," Matze's statement continues. "I have worked endless hours and fought constant battles to get the Parler site running but at this point, the future of Parler is no longer in my hands," he continued. "I want to thank the Parler employees, the people on Parler and Parler supporters for their tireless work and devotion to the company. They are an amazing group of diverse, hardworking and talented individuals and I have the utmost respect for them. Many of them have become my second family."

#5 CTH take is largely correct. 1. Front-end i.e. UX, value to users, delightful experience, high-engagement features, etc: necessary for growth and valuation i.e. business viability. 2. Back-end i.e. stability, scalability, extensibility, using but not becoming beholden to AWS etc.: necessary for security and sustainable growth i.e. business viability. Gotta have both. Sounds like this founder CEO neglected #2. Sayonara. That's rock n roll, bro. |
