A year after Musk’s takeover, X says an average user spends 32 minutes per day on the platform

On the eve of the one-year anniversary of Musk taking over Twitter (now X), the company published a retrospective blog post examining how it has fared under the new management. There are a lot of numbers in the post, but one that sticks out is a claim that an average user spends 32 minutes on the platform.
X’s CEO Linda Yaccarino said in a blog post that overall users spend 7.8 billion active minutes every day. It’s hard to make out what “active minutes” means. However, it’s lower than the 8 billion active minutes Musk tweeted about last year. Similarly, the figure of 1.5 million sign-ups per day is also lower than Musk’s 2 million per day sign-up figure from a year ago. In other words, X is growing at a slower pace and engagement is slowly declining.
