Pew Research has also closely monitored the actual behavior of 1,002 highly active users on the platform, and the evidence is clear: <strong>there has been a decrease in postings of up to 25%<\/strong> since Musk&#8217;s acquisition of Twitter became effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-230753\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/Elon-Musk-CEO-de-Twitter-800x450-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Elon Musk CEO of Twitter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The behavior of users has indeed changed. Now more than ever, Twitter is populated by &#8220;readers&#8221; (or lurkers, as it&#8217;s often said) who don&#8217;t post but only follow others. However, there may still be hope for Twitter. Many of the users who have fled in panic may return, at least after some time. According to Pew Research, <strong>only 25% of these users have decided to &#8220;permanently&#8221; abandon the platform<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are indeed somewhat concerning figures, but we don&#8217;t know if Elon Musk will take them into account at some point. <strong>Have you also abandoned Twitter during this period?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div
