Can I just say that personally I don’t know anyone who wants to publicly microblog. Like that’s just such a niche type of social media. People want to participate in threads like Reddit, or post to friends like Instagram or facebook, but only celebrities and public figures want to microblog.
I mean publicly available stats of 11million users somehow proves your point? Facebook has 3 billion users. X has 600 million but over half are bots. 1 in 5 of those accounts are American. So that’s about 1/5th of the people in America have a twitter account. How much they post would be much more complicated stat.
Here it is being ranked 12th most popular social media.

So yeah, I’m glad we are now focusing on emulating actually popular social media like YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. We can have an X clone but why did we start with one?
