    Maybe, but that’s a HUGE decrease. These aren’t flight-of-fancy numbers, these are exodus numbers.

    Social networks really rely on a critical mass of users for viability. A lot of the draw for many twitter users is the engagement from celebrities and influcers.

    I think a lot of people wanted to leave twitter, but just didn’t really have a viable alternative with the critical mass of users and the celebrity engagement. If they already were uneasy about twitter as a platform and have something else to scratch that itch… I think the better question would be “What does Twitter offer that could draw them back?”
