from my understanding they've been going downhill for quite some time.


"I don't like it" != financial distress.

From Twitter's 2021 10K:

"FY 2021 Highlights Total revenue was $5.08 billion, an increase of 37%, compared to 2020."

2021 net losses were $221M, which is a big improvement on $1.135B in 2020.

Honestly seems like things are really shaping up @ Twitter.



I’m actually a bit amazed they aren’t profitable yet. Hasn’t their user base been stagnant/shrinking for years? What are they investing in?



They were profitable in like 2017-2019. Their financials are public, it's easy to see at a macro level where the money is going.


I'm curious to see how this holds up without the events of January 6th driving so many ad impressions.
