In X's EU user base report consisting of data from February to July 2023, Musk's social media platform had 112.2 million monthly active users in the EU. In the following six month period from August 2023 to January 2024, that number dropped to 111.4 million users.

That's a minuscule drop % wise

You are a MAU if you use the platform once a month by opening the app by mistake, and also if you doom scroll for 10 hours a day.

You continue to be one if you go from one to the other. Musk has been cherry picking stats before, so what they release will be the nicest numbers they can find.

Yep. I’m in MAU numbers because I logged in twice this month to run Sky Follower Bridge. After the API debacle my average usage went from hours a day to zero minutes per day.

Even with the most favourable, most meaningless statistic he can pull he still can’t show growth or even staying in place.
