The founder sold Tweet Hunter and initially felt disappointed, but dodged a bullet when Elon Musk's API restrictions killed the product months later. Co-founders who stayed got hit hard; the speaker escaped unscathed.
Do you regret it? Like, it sounds like that was like a big moment for you selling the company. Did that kind of ruin the Twitter space for you or not really? I was like kind of disappointed in the beginning, but then I realized there's like so much more things to do when it comes to Tweet Hunter. We sold this company and then 3 or 4 months later, Elon just set up like a really bad ban for the API on Twitter. So a lot of these applications were just turned off, right? And then that happened after I exited the company. So like I wasn't affected, but the co-founders that started it and stayed in the company, they were affected. And like people were telling me like, yo, great timing. It was good. I'm like, thank you, bro. I had no idea that was going to happen.
