Also these numbers mean the average X user is spending a whopping 10.5 minutes per day on X. Not exactly engaging.

I am indeed “not Show more”

Willing to bet that user base "stagnation" is a lie too with the explosion of bots there.

Ah, but for every bot that spawns one or more real people finally shut down their accounts, so overall it's static. Anecdotal evidence: bsky.app/profile/dmja...
While I don't use Twitter I do get reports weekly of who is following and whole is unfollowing the @althaven.bsky.social Twitter account. Every week I see a handful of lost followers and a handful of gained followers. 9/10 the followers that were lost are accounts deleted by owner and gains are bots
Avatar
Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. It does seem like *if* it’s stagnant it’s only because of the bots replacing the people who are leaving.
Avatar
that's a really big number he wrote down there though

Good point. Issuing a retraction on a previous tweet of mine....

“And it turns out you're not Show more”. Took me a second to parse this, great attention to detail over at X.com. I feel like the “Show more” used to be a different color (blue?). I wonder if someone was just updating hex code variables to X’s kewl B&W brand palette and didn’t check all use cases.

Last thing I want to know is how many seconds I spend on this stupid shit
More* and more** people*** are on X!

Some people just can’t admit they made a mistake.

If those video numbers are actual total views (ie including if a video plays for a half second on your screen as you scroll by), those numbers are truly pathetic seeing how much money he sunk into video.

I was considered a power user there for volume even though I had a small follower count. I spent a good amount of time reading and replying. Now I spend all of that time here.

Hmm. I think I use about 30 seconds a week. Sorry Elmo.

User-seconds sounds like they're leftovers from other socmed sites.
