The survey showed that most of Twitter’s content is generated by a small group of power users. “Since Musk’s acquisition, 20% of adults have generated 98% of the tweets in the United States,” the study said.
He reported that about 6 in 10 adults in the United States who used Twitter in the past year had taken breaks from the service recently, and a quarter of the group indicated that they would not use Twitter a year from now, according to the survey.
