This is inside baseball. Nobody other than us care about the inner workings.

At the end of the day he is responsible for building a $100b business, with a product users love, that has attracted developers in droves and built a highly successful partnership with Microsoft.

And pretty sure the direction of the company is what the issue was. Not any side projects.

It’s not a company it’s a non-profit organization with a defined mission.

The sort of interesting part of all these comment threads is the unstated assumption that a very fast growing multi billion dollar for profit tech company is an unmitigated “good thing” and anyone getting in the way of that is wrong.

Not everyone thinks that or has that as a goal.
