The hook is that it's not run by spez, IMO.

And I'm not trying to pile on, I'm just saying there's value to people in that fact.

That being said, how far can you drive a service purely based on "we don't have <person> working here"?

I'd be willing to wager a good chunk of people don't care who runs their platforms so long as they can talk to the majority of their friends / see large swathes for new content / etc. - see Facebook, for example.
