After Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, took over the reins of the social media platform, Twitter, the journey has been one hell of a roller coaster ride. Moreover, the haphazard policy changes by the company drew a lot of criticism. Amidst the growing condemnation of how the social networking service was being run, Musk announced that he will step away from his role as the CEO of the company.
Among the chorus of voices who were worried about the future of the platform was the husband of Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian. The Reddit co-founder gave a few insights of his own about the ongoing developments. Consequently, this had many people wishing him to take up the leadership role at Twitter.
However, the dreams of such well-wishers have to take a backseat as Musk has already revealed his new selection for the coveted role. However, Alexis Ohanian has lauded the move and welcomes this much-needed step.
