Lorsque Satya Nadella a pris la direction de l’entreprise, celle-ci était lente et démodée. Il a assaini une culture toxique, a conçu le deal de la décennie et a remis Microsoft au sommet.
It’s been more than two years since Elon Musk officially took over as the owner of Twitter — now X — and while a lot of platforms rushed in to try and be the next big microblogging service, many haven’t survived. Threads, Mastodon, and Bluesky have all proven to be viable alternatives, but places like Pebble (formerly T2) and Post News didn’t make it. Threads is perhaps the likely successor, having reached 275 million monthly users as of October 2024, and it seems committed to fediverse integration by building features around the ActivityPub protocol.
