Musk said he is looking forward to working with Linda to transform this platform into X.
As CEO, Yaccarino will face a long list of challenges that have piled up under Musks ownership, including an advertiser exodus, service disruptions, regulatory scrutiny and a growing list of rivals. Musks controversial policy changes and statements have also alienated some longtime Twitter users, reports CNN.
