Twitter founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey has quit Meta-owned social media platform Instagram. The news comes in the light of the increasing rivalry between Elon Musk owned X (formerly Twitter) and Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta.
Earlier, X chief Elon Musk and Zucerkberg had grabbed headlines for a proposed ‘cage fight.'
Talking about deleting his Instagram account, Jack Dorsey said that he was one of the first angel investors of the photo and video sharing platform. He also speculated who the handle Jack would go to. According to TechCrunch, such handles sell for thousands of dollars in the secondary market.
“Deleted my Instagram account after 12 years, was one of the first 10 accounts I believe, and one of the first angel investors. who will they give the @jack handle to?,” he wrote.
