Interesting that he would try to use the potential number of views as a selling point while also publicly decimating the reach of Twitter posts lol

Views are just a number in a database.

He just wants popular and already famous people on his platform. He doesn't understand that a well designed platform will surface that content for the people that want it. Instead he wants to jump straight to things that are already popular and then force everyone to see those things. It's completely backwards.
