Ever since Elon Musk bought Twitter there’s been a whole lot of people saying the social media platform is finished, with others leaving (or threatening to leave).
Meanwhile, Twitter engagement seems to be increasing. Here’s what Musk had to report about that:
Twitter added 1.6M daily active users this past week, another all-time high pic.twitter.com/Si3cRYnvyD

The people who have fled Twitter (or at least claimed they were) might be disappointed to discover that nobody really cared.
Don’t tell all the journos who left to go over to Mastodon. 😂😂😂 https://t.co/vfX1JKBRtj

There could be a therapy session happening at Mastadon as we speak. Poor things.
But I read on CNN the company was on the brink of collapse?

Does CBS News’ return to Twitter after a nearly 48-hour departure count as a “new user” (kind of like how the Biden admin counts jobs restored after pandemic shutdowns as “jobs created”)?

Can’t be, I was told this platform was doomed.

Yeah, what happened?!
Musk also had something interesting to add after being asked about a comparison to YouTube:
I wonder what YouTube’s daily actives is
