I’m happy to say I’ve not used Twitter since they killed third party apps. Same reason I stopped using Reddit. Many other issues contributed, but in both cases the third party app situation was the breaking point.

I am a Twitter "user" in the sense that I read the site for a few minutes every few days to see the latest news or drama.

Recently all the Elon drama is boring. So I'm in that decreased user count.

70% to go!!

[–] drdabbles@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I believe in us. We can bring that number to 60% or higher by the end of this year, if we all do our part.

Musk: "Totally intentional, everyone. This is exactly what I planned for. I am, however, going to sue the US Government for allowing freedom of the press to report it."

I uninstalled the app after the rebrand. Twitter bird used occasionally, X app sat there looking like a porn app so I uninstalled.

Where did they go to though? Mastodon hasn't seen any significant growth since the last spike.

[–] parrot-party@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago

Probably no where. They likely just left Twitter and carried on with whatever else they were doing.

Good! Though I'm sure many will move to Threads
