Migration to other social media platforms shows no signs of slowing following Elon Musk’s chaotic takeover at Twitter, report says: A new report is helping visualize the changes many Twitter users face
as both new and old social media platforms vie for their attention. The
movement has been dubbed the #TwitterMigration, a hashtag referring to
users relocating to other online communities.
Twitter has always been chaotic but it has been even more so in the midst of Elon Musk’s turbulent takeover. Since Musk closed the $44 billion deal to purchase the bird app, he’s shared conspiracy theories, antisemitic rhetoric has spread rapidly, and users will soon have to pay $8 to be verified on the platform.
In
response to his antics, users are either maintaining their accounts and
starting new profiles elsewhere or moving to other social networks
entirely to share their thoughts.
The movement shows no signs of slowing, according to a report published on Friday by Dewey Square Group, a political consulting firm.
