Virtually all the major MSM outlets still have accounts and post regularly. I haven't seen much change except for I'm getting followed/liked by more bots than before, which is annoying.

December 19, 20232 yr It has way more ads than before. And not only are there more of them, they're all dumb as F too, and half of them even have community notes undermining them by pointing out the ads are misleading or are selling products from dropshippers.
December 20, 20232 yr Great business model Tesla blamed drivers for failures of parts it long knew were defective Wheels falling off cars at speed. Suspensions collapsing on brand-new vehicles. Axles breaking under acceleration. Tens of thousands of customers told Tesla about a host of part failures on low-mileage cars. The automaker sought to blame drivers for vehicle ‘abuse,’ but Tesla documents show it had tracked the chronic ‘flaws’ and ‘failures’ for years.
December 20, 20232 yr 22 minutes ago, mikemack8 said: All the haters will say it's fake Increased traffic is meaningless if advertisers are fleeing. Generally speaking, internet advertising is priced based off number of impressions, so increased traffic would mean a higher rate. But with so many advertisers leaving Twitter, there isn't enough demand to increase rates -- it's been the exact opposite. Pornhub has plenty of traffic, but shockingly not much advertising revenue...
December 20, 20232 yr Ad revenues are down over 50%, and monthly users are down around 15%. But let’s focus on a BOT fueled increase in traffic.

Even still, Musk doesn't really care about twitter's profitability all that much.

Even still, Musk doesn't really care about twitter's profitability all that much. Musk has debt, so he has a fiduciary duty to generate profits, or at least meet debt service. He also has minority investors (he owns about ~79%). Debt agreements have extensive covenants governing management's discretion - to be fair, the TWTR debt docs aren't widely available since it has not been syndicated. If he owned 100% debt free, he could do as he likes. But for now, he is legally exposing himself by saying things like "don't advertise." Now, the banks that are hung with the debt will never sue him because they want future deals from Tesla, SpaceX, etc. (everyone wants in on the SpaceX IPO if it happens). But if that debt every goes to distressed HFs, they will sue him and not give a damn.
December 20, 20232 yr "One year on, traffic has grown by 22.3 per cent from November 22-23 with 74,844,760 visits, reaching its highest value since February 2022." So despite all the publicity and constant persistence in the news cycle, it's still less traffic than when Dorsey was running the show?

Sure, keep acting like the whole thing was some sort of big miscalculation. He doesn't care if he loses $30B on twitter, he planned for this!!!"
