Elon Musk has responded to Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor deactivating his Twitter account over the weekend, writing, "maybe Etsy is more his style."

On Sunday (20 November) Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor deactivated his Twitter account after calling Musk's takeover of the social media platform an "embarrassment". He told The Hollywood Reporter, "We don’t need the arrogance of the billionaire class to feel like they can just come in and solve everything. Even without him involved, I just find that it has become such a toxic environment. For my mental health, I need to tune out. I don’t feel good being there anymore."

Yesterday (21 November) Musk wrote about Reznor's decision to deactivate his account. In one tweet, he called Reznor a "crybaby", and while responding to another tweet calling Reznor "one of the best musicians ever," Musk wrote, "I like his music tbh, but maybe Etsy is more his style."

Over the weekend Jack White also left Twitter after Elon Musk reinstated Donald Trump's account.
