Never really understood why companies like Twitter can have thousands of employees for what the product is.
They don’t tbh. I think many jobs there are redundant but people play an elaborate game to pretend it isn’t.
Redundant, like the server staff who told Elon it would take 6 months to move the servers… so he decided to move them himself on a whim… and it took 6 months to finish making them operational again?
Or redundant like the content moderation staff, whose redundancy has turned X into an even bigger dumpster fire?
Moderating and serving the content from 300 million users, worldwide, in near real time and no downtime, might seem like a simple task, but it really is not.
Leaked twitter moderation steps.
If racist, then allow
If woke, then bully and shadow ban
Me neither, and I guess they didn’t need them all in the end!
To be fair, Twitter needs very good infrastructure to be usable (e.g. caching) and obviously content moderation is as robust as their investment in it (those could be contract workers though)
So does Valve?
Oh, sure, I didn’t mean to compare the two really. Just pointing out that although Twitter is simple and easy to replicate in concept, trying to scale to support all humans as users (theoretically) is difficult
