It was in April that a controversial statement was given by Elon Musk concerning the existence of Twitter. According to him, Twitter was dying. This statement was released by him just days before he purchased the social media platform.
But today, this statement holds a lot of relevance. It is in light of the discovery of the internal documents that a conclusion similar to this can be deduced. This discovery has been unraveled by Reuters, the leading organization of researchers.

Which is not a good sign concerning the platform’s future growth. The Loss Of users also poses a very Grave challenge to Tesla, which is all set to execute the 44 billion dollar deal to buy Twitter. According to the information collected so far;
It is estimated that around 10% of the users are very active on Twitter. They are responsible for generating around 90% of the revenue. But after the pandemic, the percentage of these active users has declined from 10% to 7%.

While analyzing the decision to purchase Twitter, Elon Musk himself discovered that the most operational accounts on Twitter have not been active for a very long period, and even if they have been active, the tendency to tweet has been reduced over two years.
The exact reason why the shift is taking place is not known for the time being. Research is being undertaken to understand the shift in the users’ interests and how Twitter can be updated to accommodate these new interests over time.
