Revenue means nothing. If I sold $10 bills for $9 each, I'd have billions in revenue in a week. The path to breakeven here will be long and arduous, impossible if for some reason twitter gets the facebook treatment from the population. Musk himself is doing his best to make twitter look "not cool". He is losing his bearings fast and probably thinks twitter is the way it is because of some conspiracy in management. He shut down his own "free speech absolutist" stance pretty quickly post acquisition. If he has his way, many people will not comfortable associating themselves with twitter (what happened to facebook) and well, without enough users / activity to make it your while, twitter's future looks bleak unless Musk regains his bearings somehow. And what if something new and fresh comes along in the meantime that gains traction? Twitter, and the concept is old. People want to communicate, want to be heard and become influential - this will never change, but the medium can change and it can change relatively fast.
Twitter is a 75% squeezed lemon, has some life in it but Musk is set on wasting it thinking it is a staple like telephone / email is.
