- wraptile 3y agoTwitter didn't have direct competitors other than Mastodon when it was taken at 44B. Now there's Threads, Bluesky and bigger Mastodon.
- _ea1k 3y agoHonestly, none of those look like meaningful competitors at the moment.
- squigglydonut 3y agoNone of these matter
- dilyevsky 3y agoThey weren't even 44B when elon took the keys - he specifically tried to back out of the deal because 44B was insane peak '21 asset bubble price. In truth they were probably like 10-15B at that moment. And now that bunch of advertisers left due to we know who it's probably about 10B
