Summary

Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) is experiencing a sharp decline in users and value.

Post-election backlash, misinformation, and toxic content have accelerated user departures, with alternatives like Bluesky gaining traction.

While X saw a temporary spike in traffic on election day, its U.S. daily active users fell 8.4% in October.

Analysts project X will lose 7 million monthly users in the U.S. by 2025. Additionally, X’s brand value has plummeted from $5.7 billion to $673 million since Musk’s 2022 takeover, with revenue dropping 40% year-over-year.

    X is worse than truth social.

    If you’re still on it, I judge you for that. No matter your reason.

      Here we’ve got someone with blue hair and the body mass to match, throwing shade at X while probably sitting on a throne of empty snack bags. Your neoliberal ideas are as stale as your diet, buddy.

      You think you’re above it all, huh? Criticizing X from the safety of your own bubble, where your views are as bloated as your waistline. Maybe if you stopped pretending to be some moral authority on social media platforms and started dealing with your own issues, you’d see that your judgments are worth less than the calories in your next meal.

      Keep enjoying this shit, where your echo chamber is as comforting as your oversized sweatpants. But remember, in the real world, your opinions are about as influential as your last attempt at a diet

        Most of the furry artists are moving to Bluesky anyways, so it’ll be worth your fapping time to start checking there as well.
        But for the artists that haven’t moved? Yeah, go ahead. As long as you also archive it locally to cut down on revisits.
