I, and probably other people, are less enthusiastic about Musk projects since his recent antics. Also it's a bit similar to the last flight.

(Re the antics see for example a Tesla story - 537 comments https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43170090 and personally I'm not keen on his Ukraine stuff eg https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2025/2/21/musk-vows-to-fix...)




I feel the same.

I love space and used to love what SpaceX is doing but Musk made it a lot less appealing. Will still read about it but watching a live stream for hours? Forget about it.

I also like EVs and I have been close to getting a Tesla for a number of times but didn't yet, and at this rate, probably won't get one at all.

In my view, Musk turned quickly from a goofy geeky optimist to down-right repugnant. Not interested in any of his business.
