Twitter users can expect it to be more generous under Elon Musk at least if his promise sticks, Twitter will be seen as more open. But employees began to be fired but it's hard to get an overall picture of how Twitter users view the whole thing right now. Whether Twitter users will take kindly to this, or leave Twitter, may soon begin to show. And everything depends on the decision of Elon Musk most of the social media have spread these. This business idea of masks can be called a kind of bet. Mask's choice is cryptocurrency. He may bring forward transactions in the virtual currency of bitcoin.

Too much bad steps taken by Elon Musk is badly affecting Twitter but we should not think that Twitter will not re-strategize to overcome the challenges. A new management has been announced last month and Linda Yaccarino has the good record of turning a company around and monetize it like what Elon Musk want, the approach have to be different to avoid more problem. The fixing can take time and thing may look very ugly than this but Twitter will not leave for any other, it will continue to manage the good audience it has been enjoying on the platform.

It is Elon Musk and the new CEO who should be careful with their utterances and mode of forcing new policies and features on people, this is not going down with the masses that built Twitter to this level. Angering people with a platform like Twitter can not go down well with anyone.

Thankfully, Threads is another exact microblogging alternative that is threatening Twitter, and if care is not taken and Musk doesn't apply wisdom, then the impact would be severe.

It's wrong to acknowledge thread as a treat to twitter because Elon limited daily views for Twitter users. That's the main reason Zuckerberg copied twitter and changed logo and name to thread. He didn't work for it, he stole another person's idea and intellectual property, it doesn't make sense. Most people will run back to twitter after a while of using thread. It'll just get the fame like truth social did when people started opting out of twitter because of the new update. It'll be hard for thread to beat twitter, not now.

I also don't think that Threads will ever be able to rival Twitter. Maybe the wave of curiosity of people who want to try Threads at this time is quite a lot. But yeah this won't last long. Because when people have finished trying, they will definitely leave. unless they find comfort in using those Threads. Because I personally also just want to try Threads to satisfy my curiosity. But if the Threads platform offers usability that Twitter doesn't then maybe Threads can compete with Twitter. but if there is no significant difference then it will not be too strong to compete with Twitter which already has a lot of users.

As of 3 days ago, Threads hit over 100 million users, that's about 3 days after the microblogging app was launched. This should definitely tell you something, and for the record, how many people had left Facebook and Instagram to the extent that the platforms feel it? Mark my word, 'Threads has come to stay as a viable competitor of Twitter.' The Rivalry will continue as long as God knows when.

Elon Musk has proved himself not a worthy person to own Twitter with his overbearing approaches after taking over, this should help Threads. And for Meta to have been in the system already is another plus for it.

Actually, we shouldn't be too surprised by the growth in the number of users on the Threads Platform because the number will indeed be very easy to continue to grow. because everyone who has an Instagram account will be able to directly access and import their Instagram account to Threads. The ease of access is what makes it easy for people to try Threads.

For now, Threads still has a lot to add. Because there is no thread edit feature, no DM and many more. Even on Playstore (in my country area) I see the rating is still in the 3+ range. The point is user satisfaction who tried it is still not too high. Everyone who is active on social media on Instagram, the majority will definitely try Threads. because even from the Threads Application to Instagram we can switch applications with just one click on the Instagram icon in the upper right corner of Threads. so that Instagram users can certainly move between applications easily.
the initial launch is still in the hype. so let's watch a year from now. if the number continues to grow rapidly and active users can also survive the extraordinary increase as it is today then of course Twitter will panic at that time.

It's always good to have a platform alternative. This brings competition. Here we see a strong alternative. A lot of users joined the platform in a short time. Of course, this is due to the ease of registration method.

Elon is losing too many users with the choices he made. These users did not leave twitter and go to the other application. They currently have accounts in both apps.

The question is, will users who get angry with twitter return to twitter again or will they stay in the new application and close their twitter accounts?

At the first launch of Threads I think Elon lost a lot of users though not completely,
we know for ourselves that in just a few days Threads can be said to attract a lot of people and that's good because it will give competition,
I think Twitter is still ahead as long as Elon doesn't impose restrictions which will make users angry.

I bet those who think twitter isn't good enough have found a new platform in threads which is even more censored than twitter. May be only then they will start appreciating what twitter and Elon has to offer. I think @op you exaggerated too much with the topic. Twitter is as good if not better than what it use to be, elon is making sure of freedom of speech and reducing the level of bot account unlike before.

I hope the purchase of Twitter is not like the purchase of Yahoo which failed, Elon Musk has creative ideas so it is our hope to see Twitter become the leading social media, of course the transfer process is not easy because Elon Musk has replaced many employees at Twitter.

It hasn't been a year since Elon Musk acquired Twitter and I think it's still too early to say Twitter is a failure, with proven business experience

Twitter was at its peak already when Elon acquired it in a $40B deal. He's got plans on it but we will never know when is going to be the execution of it.

Quote from: Paul Pogba on July 13, 2023, 04:51:12 AM

I'm sure Twitter will rise soon and be the leading social media, moreover, the huge financial support makes Twitter do everything it can to be the best.

Well, it's tough to say that when Meta is also doing something in expanding their business share in the market of social media. We've seen them make a new social network and within just 5 days, it has gathered 100 million users. That's hard to beat.

Everytime I click on a crypto related trending topic the first thing I see is scammers and bots with blue checkmarks at the top of the results. Allowing random people to pay for greater visibility has ruined the user experience. It's hard to find useful information among all the trash blue checkmark accounts that pay their way into users' feeds. That's just one of many issues plaguing the site since Musk's takeover.

It's crystal clear that Twitter has been declining since Mr Musk took over.
With $8 a month, you can have a verified account on Twitter. That's absurd when you think about the fact that a lot of people get information from Twitter Usually this information comes from verified accounts and for you to be a verified account you have to be vetting and to an extent.
I can get a blue tick today and proceed to scam people with it because some don't understand that a blue tick today just means how long you can keep paying $8.
Aside from that, the app just keeps recycling the same tweets for you even after you refresh. You see tweets from people you don't follow and accounts you don't have an interest in. You don't even see tweets of your mutual the way you used to anymore.
I believe Musk will find a way to keep his app to keep generating money for him but if any of the newly launched apps stays long enough at this rate, it might take over the market from Twitter.

- Those subscriptions of 8$ a month are surely the beginning of Elon Musk's twitter problem. I realized that this is exactly what will happen and twitter will have problems, I was not wrong, because of course for several years the twitter users got used to not paying anything every month, then in a flash there will be all of a sudden. Of course, it's just common sense that if I'm the user of twitter apps, I won't use them, I'll use them on other platforms.

Because like Facebook, it doesn't charge its users a monthly subscription, because Zuckerberg still earns a lot from the million people who use FB. We don't know if this Musk became so wild with money that he thought of such subscriptions on Twitter.

I anticipated problems the moment he bought a Twitter account because he believed he could use it to manage Twitter in the same way he does with altcoin projects, but there is still plenty to learn. I think the prior owner of Twitter might not provide those secrets to him, and believe it or not, if further time passes without action, the previous owner will return to acquire back Elon Musk's company. His issues began when he fired those employees, who, in my opinion, formed the backbone of Twitter and were better equipped to run it than the people he now employs, not to mention the limitations he imposes on them. As for me, I never imagined he would act in such a way without first investigating the Twitter algorithm before firing any employees.

You know in full honesty twitter could've survived had none of these changes came through. It was a solid app back then that does its things, granted the existence of bots in that app is fucking horrendous but at the same time it's not as bad as it is now. Plus the fact that the very thing he promised he will eradicate (bots on twitter) is still far from becoming a reality even when you purchase those blue fucking checks that costs around 10 dollars in some countries. So basically what this looks like is Elon, having realized that he's in a negative net profit after belligerently buying twitter from its old executives, and then firing them off all at the same time, is trying to break even in profits by making the common people pay for it with those blue checks.

Don't even get me started with his beef against Threads lmao, he literally dug his own grave the moment he dropped essential employees of twitter.

It's common for social networks to copy each other. Remember Fleets? It was a feature that Twitter copied from Snapchat. The "For You" feed is an attempt at replicating something similar to TikTok's For You page where they push viral content on you along with content that an algorithm decided you would be interested in. There is also Spaces which is something they copied from Clubhouse.

We, the users and followers, will decide which eventually fades or increase in momentum on social media. The kind of ecosystem Elon Musk and Mark established, the cruise we all take generates billions of dollars in revenue for them. Although We don't envy their extraordinary intelligence. Elon Musk shouldn't rely on Social Media investment to remain on top of the richest human list without challenge.

Mark Zuckerberg is not on the dick-measuring contest that is the Richest Person rank (top 2), so it does not make any sense to phrase it from that perspective. This is more of two platforms and their CEOs locking horns with each other [no seriously, what is Elon's job title at Twitter at this point?] and we can also expect Elon to order new features to be rolled out on Twitter in response to Threads adding more stuff.

Twitter's new rules to buy verified batches with money are considered unfair by users, and many have started leaving Twitter for this, and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg took advantage of this opportunity. Threads as an alternative to Twitter has already been downloaded more than 50 million times from playstore and millions of times for other OS as well. Mark Zuckerberg thinks they will make it more popular than Twitter and have more market value than Twitter in a very short period of time. Now it remains to be seen what new decisions Elon Musk makes for Twitter's development

if Elon was a friend of Epstein he might just have a huge dick. seem not.

if politicians like Trump get censored in Threads, people i think will still choose Twitter. its the reason why Elon bought Twitter, it's for his political games while in Threads, there are only kids there who used to be on Instagram that already lost in the game by Tiktok. twitter though was in decline so there will be a competition between those 2 apps.

Well now Threads just reached 100 Million users. It took only 5 days for this very big number to pass. And still it is not available in Europe.

This is compared to ChatGPT that took 2 months for 100 Million users. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-12282593/Metas-Twitter-killer-app-Threads-passes-100million-users-five-days.html

I'm not shocked by Thread's 100 million increase in just 5 days. Given that everything in Thread is linked to Instagram when signing up, it will be possible and simple for it to achieve 100 million users within 5 days. 1 billion users can even be possible within a month

Do you think Threads will be a serious competitor of Twitter? People are eager to try new apps but also some old habits don't change easily.
I feel like Twitter was a dying place way before Threads and now they have to compete with them. Maybe the real fight between Musk and Zuckerberg is this one.

I enjoy the competition Thread is holding on Twitter. This kind of competition is used to determine who would lead capitalism. Competition like this will continue to happen from different angles to test who remains on top

THREAD is both a Twitter substitute and a rival at the same time. It may not resemble Twitter perfectly or even be close to it at first, but it is still an option.

Twitter and Thread are two likely social media platforms, but whether they succeed or fail depends on us, the users and supporters, not Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk.

We, the users and followers, will decide which eventually fades or increase in momentum on social media. The kind of ecosystem Elon Musk and Mark established, the cruise we all take generates billions of dollars in revenue for them. Although We don't envy their extraordinary intelligence. Elon Musk shouldn't rely on Social Media investment to remain on top of the richest human list without challenge.

Threads hit 70 million users in its short run, but that's just the result of the crowd's curiosity effect and doesn't reflect it better than Elon's social network. it will be a very interesting contest between two tech billionaires, I have also tried using Threads and really nothing stands out and is more useful than Twitter. it's too early to say if Threads can surpass Elon's Twitter, yes, we need more time.

Mark Zuckerberg isn't new to the social media business and although his Platforms has been met with criticism of restricting freedom of speech yet he still gets lots of individual to keep using his platforms. Meta's Facebook is still be used by millions of individual even when it's kind of outdated and out of fashion when you compared Facebook to the new social media designs. Instagram is preferably to celebrities and he'll use that to his advantage in promoting thread.

Thread just crossed 100 millions users and this won't have been possible if the platform is worst, curiosity is helping in attracting people to the social platforms and if mark Zuckerberg has captivating features he'll retain users and also attract new registration in the future.
