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.
Twitter (X) loses over 30% of users in two months!

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

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

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

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

For anyone that’s curious of day to day trends, this account makes a post every hour for new signups per hour/day/week. It’s pretty neat.
Seems to hover around 20,000 new signups per week, and I’ve seen it hit 50,000 during these times when Twitter kicks itself in the nuts.

My guess is TikTok.

I assume many went to Threads.
BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I thought Threads really dropped off too.

if you were a tweeter user you have no choice, it is now for X or your ex

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.
