Ona tangentially related matter: Interesting that Parag Agrawal is being named CEO. This makes 3 CEOs (that I know of) that are of Indian descent (other two being Microsoft's Satya Nadella and Alphabet's Sundar Pichai). I wonder if it is just apophenia or if there is some underlying reason why in the last years we've had an increase in Indian CEOs.

Could be just stats - lots of Indians in tech, so completely plausible that more than a few are picked as leaders.

A lot of global brands have or have recently had Indian CEOs as well (Pepsi, MasterCard, etc).

I really like the audio rooms, and use it pretty frequently. I want the decentralized Twitter option they're exploring with "project bluesky".

Decentralised Twitter already exists in the form of ActivityPub. Twitter itself has been at this for two years now and have nothing whatsoever to show for it. They are not serious about it.
