Glad people are starting to come around. Zuckerberg got a bad wrap for many years cause people HATE the facebook product, he's always been a good advocate for the underlying tech independent of product though imo. He's been probably the most important figure in increasing developer salaries (along with VCs looking to pump and dump software companies in a zero interest rate environment) the last 10 years as he bid aggressively for talent to build out FB, and showed it was worth it. Before he hit the scene the older big tech companies had an illegal no-poaching agreement to depress salaries.
I do wonder if this newfound respect/admiration is because he's one of the last founder/CEOs of software big tech and FB stock has more than doubled in a year.
A bad rap? Go back and look at his own words about those around him at the beginning. It was sociopathic. Facebook has been part of the problem of the decline of critical thinking and rational discourse, destroying families in the process.
