LOL, people who don't use Twitter parroting what they're told to think about it, it's the best it's been in years thanks to Elon.
Best in what way?
I'm still on Twitter occasionally. The main change I've noticed is that a lot of the people I follow are no longer posting, and have pinned tweets indicating which other platforms they're on. So my observations confirm the news stories about Twitter losing vast numbers of users.
And do you think the news about various big advertisers leaving Twitter is false? If so, what is your evidence for this?
If lots of users leave Twitter, it's not surprising that lots of big advertisers are leaving too. It would be surprising if they didn't.
Losing big advertisers is unlikely to be good for a company's financial health, especially in a business as heavily dependent on advertising as social media platforms are. Elon Musk hoped to make up for that by attracting more paid "Twitter Blue" users, by giving those users more privileges. All I can say is, good luck with that ....
And Elon Musk, by going out of his way to offend left-wingers in particular, has harmed his other companies A LOT. Guess who Tesla's main customers were? Guess who was most likely to favor Musk's infrastructure ambitions?
In short, it is obvious that Musk's entire empire is in big trouble now.
