This would be true in the past but now most people are not on Twitter.

Sadly, I can report that this has brought down 2 of the major Mastodon nodes in the United Kingdom.

Happily, the small ones that I also use are still going without anyone apparently even noticing. At least, the subject has yet to reach their local timelines at the time that I write this.

2 of the other major U.K. nodes are still up, too.

"Most people" were never on Twitter to begin with. However its number of monthly active users have only grown since 2020.

Like everywhere it is mostly bots.

Look at HN frontpage, there used to be 1-2 Twitter post per day. Now it is barely per week. End even those are usually just from two accounts (Karpathy and Carmack).
