The truth is that this isnt how and when I imagined leaving Twitter, and this wasnt my decision.
Twitter is also pausing most hiring and backfills, except for business critical roles, starting this week.
Im accountable for leading and operating Twitter, and our job is to build a stronger Twitter every day.
