Same opinion. I absolutely hate what he did to Twitter and never in my life I will call it "X" - BUT - it looks to me as if the engagement is thriving.

Edit: clarified that the engagement is thriving

Estimates are that its revenue has decreased by half. Even if Musk decreased operating expenses enough to keep or even increase profits, a 50% drop in revenue is not at all a good sign for the health of business.

  • My bad: I have now edited the comment and clarified that I have meant engagement thriving, not financials.

Thriving? Its valuation has tanked since his purchase and last I read they’re still actively losing users.

  • Yes I know. But the platform has lots and lots of engagement. Stagnation did not happen. Quite the opposite.

    • When I finally left Twitter most of the engagement was obviously bots either repeating other tweets or spamming unrelated dross on high activity threads for engagement farming. The number is high, but the quality is negligible.
