Musk/Twitter Document Dump

I don't know this for sure but I am guessing Twitters primary demo skewed to left and under 40. So they could have been thinking of marketing/financials but not outwardly saying it?
Yup. It has worked out just fine here on the Cooler.
Agree or disagree, always entertaining/good for a laugh.
Again not 100% but I vaguely remember they were losing users at an alarming rate during Trumps hey day.
Looks like I was wrong. They weren't losing overall users. Can't find numbers on specific demo numbers though. Whether they were gaining or losing in their key demo of 20-35 year old males. That demo(and the entire user base) does lean to the left pretty significantly.

I'll add that its pretty clear that you old shrivs didn't use Twitter then and still don't now. You sure do like yelling at us young whipper snappers though. Some things never change. VBG.

well revenue almost always follows users # on these platforms as they are paid by "views" and "clicks" on the ads people see on them. More people generally means more clicks.
According to my link there was some pretty stark dips in revenue during 2020 and early 2021.
Side topic. Its interesting that the high water mark in revenue every year for them is Q4. Guess that is because kids have less schooling during the holidays and more time to use social media. More down time at work too? Or Twitter charges more for ad space in Q4 knowing that overall consumer spending typical peaks in Q4?

I wonder how active you have to be in order to qualify. That criteria could effect how those trends look.
I had a twitter account and usually accessed during a calendar year but rarely posted. Most browsing twitter would consider my account to be inactive but I would guess the mere fact of logging in would make it counted as active.

When did truth social get started? It would be interesting if twitter saw a noticeable dip around that time. Wouldn't shock me if conservatives were leaving twitter back then but coming back now with Elon at the helm and thus countering however many liberals are exiting.
It's not a civil war. Ukraine is a separate sovereign country. Repeating Russian propaganda is supporting and favoring Russia.

In my experience, internally, employees talk about it. Somebody is bound to bring up how it affects the bottom line.
They aren't hinting at that in what I've seen--they are really focused on what sound like ideological motivations.

Do all media companies' revenue spike in Q4? Maybe advertisers just spend more in that quarter because of Christmas?

It doesn't. Just an observation. Also VBG means Very Big Grin and J/K means just kidding. Joke that didn't land. I'm either not funny or its pudding time at the home.
@mcmurtry66 has spilt more seed in the last year than Katherine Hepburn filling a bird feeder.

He got booed mercilessly at Dave Chapelle’s show last night. He’s just turning into one giant troll.
She is right , the rest of her post is plain old fashioned ignorance. I had to read it several times to try and make any sense of it, But she came back strong in the end . See when she makes progress on some self awareness we need to applaud her not give her a bad time.
NOW? Seriously Mark, have you never been on Twitter pre-Elon?
As the glowies moved from FBI DC, including James Baker, to FBI-Twitter, many who were being censored, shadow-banned, and banned..left, and found other less restrictive places to play.
Southern Ukr north through Mariupol is 85% Russian speaking, the Donbass is 90%+ Russian speaking.
Literally all are Orthodox Christian. Same for Crimea.
The Ukr military( what is left of it) continue to use artillery and mrl systems against civilian population in Donbass, as they have for 8-10 years.
What does speaking Russian have to do with anything? We speak English - should the British empire annex us? Should Rome consider us part of the Vatican because we're a mostly Christian nation?
No doubt there are Russian sympathizers in those regions, but Ukraine is a sovereign country. That's the part you're leaving out.
Twitter was the FBI.
Elon is just taking out the trash.

They're not sympathizers, they're Russian.
Ukr has been a vassal state of the American empire since at least 2004.
No, they're Ukranians who want to be part of Russia.
Vassal or not (they're not), Ukraine is a sovereign nation.
Was, until Victoria Nuland and others started choosing the performers for the 'elections'.
It's quite entertaining to watch as everything the DC clown show does blows up in their face.
And you're not supporting Russia? Ukraine is a sovereign, democratic country and Russia invaded it. You're on the wrong side..
They're a vassal state of the American Empire, just as I said. They've been hustled into the same disastrous trap with South Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
All the shiny lipstick in the world won't change that pig into a prince.
Well, we're still a sovereign nation even after the 2020 election.
Nationality isn't determined by the legality of its election.
So twitter struggled finding Trump in violation of their policies?And here we go again...
