@manton Good decision. The vast majority of people are still on X. Hardly any know Bluesky (which has become a den of pedophiles sadly) and even fewer have heard of Mastodon.
For real reach you have to build up a following on X.

I only use it now for watching movies and reading books.
And for that an iPad is great! Perfect in fact.
But too expensive for only doing that.
There should only be 2 iPads:
Regular iPad
iPad mini.
And the prices should be €199 and €99 respectively.
They would sell like crazy and people would actually use them daily for media consumption.
And iPad cheaper than a kindle but also runs iPad OS would be very attractive

Yes sadly. That was also Steve’s weakness. The struggled between the desire to “make a dent in the universe” and his desire to make money.
To make a dent in the universe the majority of humanity needs to use your products. Not only the rich.
The iPhone 3G up until the 5S sold well because they were affordable. After that they got expensive and iPhone X took us over $1000.
MacBook Neo had the right idea, at least inside the US, but was DOA outside the US because with tax it is still very expensive.
We can thank shareholder value for much of this.
