Show Notes

Xs decline in engagement and traffic is causing publishers to abandon the platform, with the Electronic Frontier Foundation being the latest to leave after nearly two decades. Once boasting fifty to one hundred million impressions a month, posts now only reach two to three percent conversion rate, a stark contrast to the fifteen percent back in Twitters heyday. NPR, PBS, The Guardian, and academics have also departed, citing AIs impact on search traffic and Facebook referrals drying up. As top accounts are dominated by low-quality conservative voices, the platforms fight for relevance is becoming increasingly challenging.
