Ask HN: Is Zuckerberg just a „one-hit-wonder"?

3•fandorin•1h ago

What’s your view? The original idea for Facebook was stolen, then he bought Instagram and Whatsup to stay afloat. Metaverse is/was an absolute disaster. And I’m not even talking about all the scandals from Cambridge Analytica era.

How bad CEO, in your opinion, is Mark?

Not many people understand this but he is a billionaire.

Meta is profitable and he can afford to lose bets and can pay off the fines if it means that Meta gets an extra $10B for the next quarter.

I find the amorality of the billionaire class strange. He could be as good as somebody running a public enterprise, a research lab, a hospital. A state energy utility.

Instead he's running a giant meme tank feeding racist shit to win clicks and running fake AI ads boosting scam investments.

He's good at that. But is he actually any good at building things which enrich society without making him money?
