I understand this is HN and many here love SF so can you explain to me how or why a company would want to have a physical location in downtown SF? It is expensive, higher tax, more regulations, all of which are often hated by a pure capitalist corporation. With the remote work push, the argument about talent pool is moot as well. IMO, moving out of SF is the correct choice. In fact, moving out of CA is also a correct…
I think you want to be close to the top of the pyramid.

twitter is dying / becoming another truth. pushing anyone that has differing views from the platform is leaving it as another right wing echo chamber. It's already far from the bastion of information flow than it used to be, but still retains some visibility because of it's history and brand name.
