    Momentum. It’s still the most popular platform for many niches and it will stay popular as long as it’s popular…

      And English speakers are only a fraction of the user base. Current events in the US social media bubble barely penetrate the general public in the US, let alone across international and language barriers.

      It’s probably the largest social media platform in Japan, for example.

        Really? 😯 I’m surprised they don’t have a local solution, that’s interesting!

        I think you overestimate the user base.

        Unless you happen to be in one of the countries or niches where Twitter is really popular, you won’t reach a relevant amount of people on there.

          That goes without saying, I mean in places like the US/UK/Japan etc, it’s useful. Many artists almost depended on it.

      You dont say? Yall are making it popular. If you y’all stopped using it, then it will not be popular and it would die.
