X Chief Says She Is Leaving the Social Media Platform

Linda's tenure was an overwhelming success if you judge it according to what her assigned goals probably were:

1) Moved X out of woke censorship into a highly liberal (in the permissive sense of the word) free speech platform, while at the same time...

2) Improved the X brand safety such that nearly all advertisers are back on the platform.

We forget how much at odds these two goals were a couple years ago, but the overton window has shifted a lot since then so it doesn't seem as big a deal.

Point number 2, was a great success with a controversial owner.

Her tenure was an "overwhelming success" if you don't know what either of those words mean.
