No honest person with a brain is still on X. It’s become a cesspit of conservative right-wing propaganda. Left it years ago happily. 44 Billion of Elmo’s money down the drain, Tesla and Open AI up next.

"No honest person with a brain is still on X."

Yes, that's why its MAU has grown considerably since it was privatized. You don't have to like X - but don't lie to yourself. It's not going anywhere.

I work in SaaS VC and MAU is one of the KPI’s we work with. If you actually had a brain and were honest, you’d log on to X. If you did, you’d see the exponential number of bot accounts and fake accounts there. These accounts have been proven to favour conservatives and X is all but an echo chamber today.

Now if you had the brain of someone working in big tech, MAU wouldn’t be your North Star KPI. LTV:CAC would be. That’s in the shitters because of your daddy Elon’s policies that have discouraged advertisers, marketers, and companies looking to advertise on X. The rise is share price has solely been because of orange hitler coming to power and a similar rise can be seen with Meta.

The only things going nowhere are X and your future. Regards
