"To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago. This stark decline in engagement has made it clear that the platform is no longer effective for reaching audiences."
"We stay because the people on those platforms deserve access to information, too. We stay because some of our most-read posts are the ones criticizing the very platform we're posting on."
X has faced criticism over its declining ability to drive traffic and engagement. EFF announced its departure from the platform after nearly two decades, citing a drastic drop in post impressions. In 2018, EFF's posts garnered 50 to 100 million impressions monthly, but by 2024, this number plummeted to around 2 million. EFF emphasized that their presence on other platforms is to ensure access to information, stating that X is no longer the primary battleground for their advocacy efforts.
