David Mertz @mizukey.bsky.social · 16/06/2026What a way to build trust with your employees and fans. Xbox has become where little sparks of creativity and passion go to fizzle and die instead. Xbox is just going to keep pivoting from idea to idea, never committing to or dreaming of anything, slowly driving out thousands of talented people. 000
