But some platforms are trying to detoxify social media. Twitter; Mastodon; Vicky Leta/Insider1. One pioneering platform is working to detoxify social media. Once championed as heralds of a more interconnected world, social media has instead contributed to loneliness, low self-esteem, and the proliferation of harmful disinformation, Evan Malmgren writes.

"Spending a half billion a year on flying cars doesn't make sense for the type of business we are," said one current Uber executive. "I don't think innovative people want to work for a non-innovative product leader," said one former Uber executive. "Under Sundeep's leadership the product team has shipped more products, to more users, than ever before," a spokesperson told Insider. That's two billion dollars," a current Uber product executive said.
