Yes WCW was badly run but only when the AOL merger & Thunder were brought in on hisxwatch. he couldn't have been doing a bad job if they were winning 83 weeks in a row.

HedgeAlgo 🇺🇸 (@MarginCall4) reported$SPCX is an AoL that experiments with rockets. Same internet service provider and advertising biz as America Online of 1990s.

Inside Agitator (@AbsolutelyMalc1) reported@spencerpratt you don't know **** about business, Hollywood, or history. you're comparing apples and oranges. ALL the guilds oppose the merger. WHY IS THAT? mergers mean less projects, less competition, lower wages (and you somehow missed AOL acquiring Time Warner (and WB) in 2000

W.R. Schock, QBD (@iontecs_pemf) reported@eyecewe @hthieblot It was a masterpiece. AOL, spawn of hell, bought out Netscape in 1998 & deliberately destroyed it trying to force people back to hell. Worst decision in internet history.

p19k (@peteralexbizjak) reportedBending Spoons is the most interesting acquisition machine in tech right now, and the more you dig into it... The weirder it becomes. They buy aging digital brands that still have users and brand recognition but have lost their edge, think Evernote, WeTransfer, Vimeo, Meetup, AOL, Eventbrite, and a pile of others. Then they do the thing almost nobody else has the stomach for: they gut the headcount hard, move operations onto their own centralized platform, raise prices, tighten free tiers, and run the products with a much smaller team of their own people (“Spooners”). The original staff is mostly gone. In some cases the entire original team was shown the door. Imagine... Entire staff gone! Mosaic: 330 people out because only the assets were bought. WeTransfer: 75%. Evernote: from hundreds down to a fraction. Vimeo: most of the workforce, including the video team. The list goes on. They are transparent about it in filings as they call the workforce reductions part of the “transformation.” Does it work financially? At the operating level, yes. Revenue went from $387M in 2023 to $1.31B in 2025, with Q1 2026 already at $601M. Operating income is healthy (around 20-21% margins recently) and adjusted operating margins are even better, climbing toward 50%. GAAP net income is messier because of debt interest and acquisition-related costs, but the core engine is printing cash once the cuts land. They target aggressive IRRs on deals and hold everything forever with no exit plan. Compare that to the usual suspects. Constellation Software is the cleanest public parallel. Same “buy and never sell” philosophy, same focus on capital allocation. But Constellation is decentralized: hundreds of small vertical B2B software companies that mostly run themselves. Sticky, mission-critical products, low churn, funded largely from internal cash flow, modest leverage. Steady compounding over two decades. Bending Spoons is the opposite operating model: hyper-centralized platform, consumer and legacy digital brands (higher churn risk), heavy debt, and much more aggressive restructuring. Higher targeted returns, higher variance. Private equity shops like Thoma Bravo or Vista do the cost-cutting and leverage part. The difference is they buy to sell in a few years. Bending Spoons has no intention of flipping anything. They want the portfolio to compound indefinitely. That permanent-capital mindset is closer to Berkshire than classic PE, even if the day-to-day execution looks more like a ruthless turnaround team with a shared AI-heavy tech stack. The model has clear strengths: speed of integration, willingness to make hard decisions, ability to extract margin from businesses that previous owners treated as lifestyle companies or growth stories. It also has obvious risks; consumer products are less sticky than vertical software, debt service is real, and the long-term durability of heavily optimized legacy brands under continuous price pressure is still being tested. Newer big acquisitions (Vimeo, Eventbrite, AOL) are still in the middle of the transformation. Whether you like the approach or find it cold is secondary. The numbers and the consistency of the playbook are hard to ignore. Bending Spoons is running a specialized version of the software roll-up with more aggression on costs and more centralization than the classic players. It is working so far. The interesting question is how far the model scales before the easy targets dry up or the leverage becomes a problem.

Respectful Witness (@pauly1UP) reported@Stewbaccaa @WrestleFeatures Millions watched those “100 horrible Russo ideas” and kept coming back. Triple H removed the chaos, has unlimited resources and corporate support, and now even hardcores say the show sucks. Russo’s garbage kept an audience despite AOL. HHH has TKO, streaming partners and is DYING

stekkerauto 🚗⚡️ (@stekkerauto) reportedI still sometimes come across people who think that AI is a bad search engine that makes bad text and bad pictures, which is kind of like looking at the internet in 1997 and think it’s about AOL chat rooms. – Benedict Evans

Amy Alkon (@amyalkon) reported.@Ask_Spectrum is worse than AOL dial up—by far. Some manager gave me his number so I could call him if things got bad again. No reply. I need to spend my time trying to save my life from the massive malpractice by Kaiser. My energy is just crushed every day. I struggle to write even a few lines. Dealing with Spectrum again and again and again and it never been fixed is energy outlay I cannot afford.
