    Xitter had a very sharp worsening as a platform, and yet, somehow, still remains very relevant.

      Didn’t over half the real users leave? Feels like it’s basically a handful of nazis, many nazi bots, and a few media people for businesses.

        I have no idea how it feels there or what the real or honest user percentage is like. Subjectively occasionally I still see xitter. Maybe my impression of importance and use as a source for press/media is outdated.

        Still, it seems to remain very relevant in some areas and circles, like vtubing, Japan, Ukraine, and Russia.

        I assume it’s the same for other areas. The recent reporting about artist outcry and leaving xitter because of their AI remixing is another indication that is still significantly popular, apparently.

        Whether it’s 50% bots or not - if we assume the other half to be real and honest users that’s still a lot and relevant.
