Why did so many people decide to quit Twitter?
It is normal for people to leave or join the social network every day. But in recent days, after Elon Musk announced his plans to buy the social networking site, it seems that there have been a number of fluctuations.
In a U.S. poll conducted by Time2play, 6.3% of respondents said that Elon Musk would leave Twitter if the acquisition of the social network was finalized. On the other hand, 24.2% of people would leave Twitter if former President Donald Trump’s ban was lifted.
Some users could not wait to close their accounts, while others decided to join the social network. According to an NBCNews article, the number of followers of political right-wingers, including Representative Marjorie Taylor Green, has risen. It will have more than 100,000 new followers. Barack Obama, on the other hand, would have lost more than 300,000 followers.
Celebrities like Katy Perry are also said to have reduced the number of their followers. The singer would have lost more than 200,000 followers.
