X’s user base in the European Union is now officially lower than it was prior to Elon Musk’s acquisition of the company.
And that’s according to a new report from Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter, but you knew that). The social media platform now has a total of 94.8 million monthly active users in the EU.
That’s a loss of roughly 11 million European users from X’s previous transparency report, as highlighted by Social Media Today.
Mashable previously reported on X’s declining user base in the EU last fall. Now, we know that X’s European user base has continued to drop. In 2022, before Musk acquired the social media platform, the company had more than 100 million users in Europe.
That’s a start. But it is still a long way to go.
Yah, 94 million active monthly users still in the EU. The network effect is real.
In the social media world it’s unsustainable growth or die.
They’ve gone down 10% in 2 quarters. It’s still a huge problem.
Imagine losing 10% of your paycheck quarter to quater…
Sort of surprised the reverse of the network effect isn’t as fast - but then I remember there’s still people paying AOL for internet.
AOL can’t possibly still be an isp right? I know some people kept their email accounts and they probably still run email servers and a web portal.
How can I get to the internet without AOL?
Incredible. thank you
Congrats on being one of today’s lucky 10,000. 🤝
Yeah that’s 20% of the population of the EU (total population figure of 450 million used). It’s mental that after all of the things that have happened recently, 1 in 5 people still use Xitter and that’s not even excluding babies.
sorta surprises me it was higher under him. One thing that annoys me with the local news broadcast is the various social media lists in the info graphic part at the bottom of the screen.
