    Because he’s doing everything to make it fail and destroy the platform, isn’t it obvious?

      I don’t know. The way it’s going down, it really makes him look like an idiot. He could have just flipped the switch and turned it off as a massive demonstration of power.

      Instead he’s making one mindboggingly stupid decision after another, showing the whole world how utterly incompetent he is.

      The most logical explanation for me is the easiest one: if he’s making stupid and incompetent decisions, maybe he’s just stupid and incompetent.

    genuinely convinced he may have intentionally destroyed twitter to make the next presidential campaign operate on a different field.

    sounds crazy but without twitter or reddit, how do “the youth” communicate? tiktok? insta?

      Big parts of the youth did not use twitter. Twitter had at its peak about 500mio active users. Instagram has 2.4 billion, tiktok 1 billion, snapchat 750mio. The relevancy of twitter is highly skewed, because the media used it a lot.
