She made some poor decisions, but that doesn’t mean she deserved to be finished off by cancer.
I kinda miss the time she was CEO of YouTube, the chaos she brought to the website was just absolutely hilarious and funny. And now that Susan is gone, we’ll never experience that era of imperfections again. Not that I prefer it over the early years of YouTube, it’s trash by comparison, but still, it’s the FUN kind of trash. YouTube today is the painful kind of trash, especially with content farms basically dominating the website.
Fuck cancer. Also, now that I said all that, I’m kind of expecting a stream of downvotes.
1- you’re on Lemmy, that’s gonna be a common view and not get down votes 2- who cares if you do? Is it worth mentioning? Is it worth me writing this comment?
Looked up her name on Twitter to see what people were saying about this, that was a mistake 🙄
A lot of people seem to hate her for whatever reason, she was far from perfect, but all things considered I think she did fine as CEO and I never got the hate. It can’t be easy to manage a company as big and complex as YouTube.
I can’t imagine how hard it must be to manage a company as big and complex as YouTube.
To be fair, not at all. Someone in her position would be making broad decisions, such as “should we have a downvote button,” and spending her time courting advertisers and handling the whiny board of directors, who are mostly geriatric babies.
I’ve never been a CEO of a company worth billions, and statistically, the likelihood of you being one is very very low. The truth is you have no idea what she did in her day to day life. I think the reality of it is she was probably working way over 40 hours a week because of the expectations from the alphabet shareholders. If she is paid millions, as an investor, id want the CEO to be working their ass off to give me a good return on my investment
Fuck cancer
