Since Elon Musk acquired social network Twitter in October 2022, the company has been pretty much constantly in the spotlight, and not really for the right reasons. It started very shortly after, with controversy erupting when the new owner fired 80% of the company’s workforce, including CEO Parag Agrawal.
Of course, the change of name from Twitter to X.com then followed in summer 2023. There’s been a great deal of disillusionment among long-time Twitter users, many of whom have now chosen to leave the platform completely. Just last week, The Guardian announced it would no longer post on X, and many other famous figures have also opted to do the same, like Stephen King and Jamie Lee Curtis.
