Honestly if Elon The Musky Husky wanted to rebrand twitter as a competitor to Youtube, there's a 10% chance I might start using the platform, which is 10% more than usual.

It’s really wild to go from real life, where I don’t know anyone who uses twitter, to online where people are very interested in what’s happening to it.
Do these people not know a ton of viewership for news shows is that the channel is just on? Who’s gonna go to twitter and watch Don Lemon talk about stuff if they have to seek it out? Maybe they think it’s a built-in audience because people are there so surely they’ll watch?
Basically it’s content that expires quickly that isn’t “just on” anywhere. I’m no genius but I wouldn’t count on it working.
Twitter is shoved down our throats because every time you go to a news site they embed it into their articles. Twitter is a success because journalists are addicted to it despite constantly complaining about how shitty it is.

Elon's statements are the verbal equivalent of getting drunk and vomitting on a wall. Stuff comes up that you never expected to see, it creates a huge mess, and whatever sticks, sticks.
This guy never told a truth in his life.
Okay, so is there a way for me to see the current value of Twitter/X? He lost a bunch as he renamed to X and THEN everything went down the drain. So what's left?
He missed the image board step in X devolution.
