    Twitter is dead and Threads is thriving

    Neither of those statements are true.

    Yes, twitter is in decline with a 15% drop is users in the past year but that is far from dead.

    I am no fan of twitter or EM but it still has a long way to fall before we can pull the sheet over its head.

    And Reports of threads as thriving seems to be wrong in the other direction.

    fb is pushing threads content to fb to boost numbers

    TLDR: Indications are that both platforms are losing users but twitter has a much longer way to fall.
