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
Based off of ElonJet N628TS, it would suggest Elon Musk has not been to SpaceX's Starbase for nearly three months. Most often the jet is in San Francisco before the Twitter takeover it was rarely there. This would suggest Twitter is a significant distraction to Tesla & SpaceX.

@taylorlorenz It also builds engagement in other areas of society.
Landed in Oakland, California, US. Apx. flt. time 3 Hours : 20 Mins, earlier today.
We found out what really happened in the stalking incident Elon Musk cited to ban @elonjet and a bunch of journalists. This is the story we were asking Musk about on Twitter when he suspended @taylorlorenz. (I'm still suspended!) https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/12/18/details-of-musk-stalking-incident/
Musk blamed a Twitter account for an alleged stalker. Police see no link.

The incident last week underscored how Elon Musk’s personal concerns can influence his governance of a social media platform used by hundreds of millions of people.

@taylorlorenz I'm surprised it hasn't shifted more to Instagram even before the recent changes. Maybe that's limited because it doesn't do links in posts.
@oliverdarcy It’s win-win for him. Either he gets to say people want him or he gets to leave which I think is what he wants anyway. And a bonus win for staying in the news cycle.
