#TWITTERISDEAD

I saw that hilarious hashtag trending on Twitter the other day.

People are apparently leaving Twitter in droves, preaching about the end of this social media platform.

All while daily active users keeps increasing, but let’s not get into that.

The point is Elon Musk took over, gave many Twitter employees the option to stay and work hard on the future, or leave and get a 3-month severance package.

Many left.

Like, a lot.

And that caused a lot of people to believe that Twitter was doomed to die because of the new leadership of Elon, and the fact that Twitter had a fraction of the employees it used to.

Let me ask you a question..

Is it hard to see why people would believe this is the end of Twitter?

Do they get to change their opinions about the future of Twitter now that there’s a new leader and a lot of things have changed?

For me it’s absolutely fair that people might believe Twitter is going to die. I personally don’t think it’s going to die (like, at all), but I can totally see how…
