Strongly agree but lots keep using X, in fact it seems to get worse :(
Momentum is a hell of a drug
There's most definitely not more users. But there's a alot not going away either.
In my country corporations and even sports clubs are pulling out of Twitter. So it's definitely getting less and less relevant.
Be cautious/aware, that X is full of bots. Especially since Musk's takeover. They train their AI (Gronk) with the content on X.
I'm a little surprised by Twitter restricting an account for that. Of course I never believed Musk's free speech rhetoric, but this isn't a specific issue where I'd expect them to put their thumb on the scale so blatantly.
