How many monthly users would we expect to drop due to the efforts against bots and webscraping, if we hold real demand constant?

  Imagine believing that X has made efforts against bots. Every day I get hundreds of necro-likes on ancient tweets from zero-follower accounts with profile pics of almost-naked women. The bot problem is way worse than it ever was before Musk.

    It's the opposite for me. I have less bots in me feed. I do have the same like problem you do, but it's a less of an issue for me than having a stream polluted with empty tweets, crypto scams and political robots.

      Yes, agreed. I don't really care about the odd like from a fake thot account, and I see way less of other botting.
