Since Musk bought it? Yes-ish. Per Business of Apps, Twitter has maintained around the same user counts, but that is through gains and losses across demographics. Women have fled the platform; what used to be fairly equal is now 2:1 men to women. US users are down 15%-20%. What has grown commensurately is right wing international users, further skewing the average political slant on the platform.
