Is Twitter dying?

Most SaaS owners use Twitter as their primary marketing channel. Do you think it still makes sense? Or is it the right moment to start looking for an alternative platform?

Twitter does not seem to be dying. Twitter has a large user base of over 300 million monthly active users and continues to be a popular platform for sharing news, information, and opinions. Yes it is facing some major changes but I don't think so personally.

Definitely not. It's only getting interesting, at least for me.

Elon Musk fired developers, made the API cost $100 / month instead of being free (lowering drastically number of bots while making💰), made the code open-source so it's getting fixed for free - we can say whatever we want, these are some genius moves ahah

definitely if you look at it financially. Twitter needs to pay $1 Billion for loans every year. He's losing money like crazy and twitter is not paying for services it's availing. Like they don't pay the HQ building rent for a few months now. barely made $11 million with Twitter Blue while losing near 50% of ad revenue. Now trying to make money by hyping crypto like dogecoin. Honestly we can write a Book on how not to ruin a Social Media giant.

Absolutely not. Twitter is changing its business model. I'm not a fan of Musk, but Twitter won't die until Musk dies

Not dying, but getting harsher for makers...

@charlie_lee1 feel you, we are getting trouble with their new API policy. Offtop, got notified for Hummmin, may all the forces and luck be with you.

No, of course not, it's transforming slowly but steadily into a whole new product/experience!

Definitely not, I think that twitter is renewing itself from its bases!

Definitely not, with so many changes coming up, and see a future crypto community being built if not already!! and out of all the social media platforms, I really like Twitter, informative news and not random reels coming up

No way ;) 'Twitter seems to be dying' they said a year ago, and 7 years ago, etc. Some recent changes might be called a bit of controversy, despite that I believe that it's harder to kill twitter than it seems, with its evergreen core audience, community spirit and tons of local jokes.

Why do you think that? I've only just started sharing on Twitter, but so far it seems like a friendly environment

Definitely not! It seems to be getting a little more exciting.

No. In my opinion, it's getting more niche, there're certain communities where you get (pushed) in to, whether it is by the algorithm or not. But it's getting more alive every week.

It's not totally dying, but it's taking a hit. After a rough patch, Twitter bounced back in 2019 and seemed to find its groove. But now, with the changes in management new issues have appeared like wonky searches, questionable content (porn & brawls), lousy recommendations, the must pay route they are taking and glitchy basic features. Fingers crossed they sort it out, or we might be hunting for new platforms

Everyone who was once born will someday die. I see Facebook's audience stagnating more than Twitter's

I don't think so. Instead, I think more people are using it now than before.
