The X era under CEO Linda Yaccarino came to an abrupt end late last night after she announced her resignation via her personal account. No reason was given as there was no word on when it would happen and Yaccarino did not explain it in her post.
Yaccarino was appointed CEO of X in May 2023 as the company faced issues with advertisers leaving the platform and a declining user base due to the actions of owner Elon Musk. Although Yaccarino did not give a reason for her hasty departure from X, speculation has emerged that it was related to the issue of Grok giving a pro-Nazi post on X early yesterday morning and suddenly calling himself MechaHitler.
Although many companies have returned to advertising products on X to avoid being sued, the company's revenue has not yet recovered to the level before it was bought by Musk. At this time, the number of Threads users is approaching X due to a massive migration to alternative platforms. At the time of writing, Elon Musk has not given a statement and Yaccarino's replacement has not been announced.
