Is it perhaps due to them restricting access to only logged-in members?
It definitely affects me, as I haven't had an account in years (even before Elon took over), and I don't want to create one now, but some companies that I was tracking for tech support updates I can no longer track (without, of course, signing up again, which I don't want to do).
If they are virtue signalling losers, that implies a cohort of virtue signalling losers exist in Twitter. About other virtues and other losses. thus, it's losers all the way down.
I really wonder if a large portion of the drop could be attributed to other sites that simply linked to Twitter in the first place.
For instance, I don't recall Twitter's search engine ever having great discovery on its own (maybe it did; I can't remember), but from my own personal experience, most things that I discovered there were from a web search or some other site just happening to land me there somewhere.
So, I imagine the traffic will just keep getting lower as search engines forget about them more.
Not sure if you see this but with regards to Evernote, you can revert to their old interface website. And use an old copy of Evernote apk if you can find it somewhere.
I see a lot of links to Twitter (here and elsewhere). I don't want to log in or use the app, I just occasionally want to see what people are saying when a tweet gets upvoted here on HN, or when I think "I wonder what XYZ is saying, I'll click the Twitter link on the place I usually interact with them."
Since I've been stopped by a login link I've mostly stopped going to Twitter at all.
