How would we know that Twitter has become a ghost town?

I think it’s happening already, and we know because Elon accidentally told us.

The "view" count reveals a different story than Elon intended

The Future, Now and Then
@davekarpf Do we know what the view counts were before, for comparison? I've been looking at Twitter Analytics, basically the same thing, since long before Musk took over, and the numbers were always lower than my follower count. I have fewer followers than you, admittedly, but still.
@dmandl yeah, I’m curious about that. It’s the type of question that Twitter’s comms team could answer, if Twitter hadn’t fired the whole comms team!
