” It’s finish “… Damien VielCEO of Twitter France, announced that he would leave his post on the social network, without specifying whether this departure was his decision or not, after “seven incredible and intense years”.
“Pride, honor and mission accomplished. Goodbye #twitterfrance. What an adventure ! Which team ! What encounters! “, he was still content to tweet.
“All my thoughts to the tweeps”
His previous message dated back to November 4 when Twitter, acquired by Elon Musk shortly before, began a global wave of layoffs. “All my thoughts, my respect, my energy and my love to the tweeps (nickname of Twitter employees, editor’s note) around the world today. We have built together the most incredible application on the planet,” he wrote.
This departure comes as the future of the social network at the blue bird seems very uncertain after a week as turbulent as the previous ones, between new bleeding of the workforce and restoration of Donald Trump’s account, a source of controversy.
