Until recently it was a great way to reach people in a way you can’t really do with any other platform.
But this day and age breaking TV broadcast doesn’t work for anyone under the age of 55 or so
Relying on a single service was a huge mistake. You can always diversify.

Sure, that’s easy to say. But name another free, publicly available, instant mass message delivery system they could also use?
Telegram, RSS, Email…
Take your pick
Why’d you get downvoted when those are good alternatives?
All require the audience to be signed up. Twitter allowed users to broadcast. But yes, they are certainly functional alternatives.
Usenet? It’s is still there, despite google’s attempts to absorb it.
Yeah exactly, and Twitter was the first of its kind. It was the platform to introduce @tagging usernames, hashtags, micro blogging and was very accessible. There are lots of other social media platforms, but none of them are like twitter with exception now of Mastodon, but even mastodon has a small barrier, twitter you visit an url and have access to all the content on that account immediately, just by visiting an url. This is fundamentally why it was adopted along side Facebook and not to replace it. It had a function, still does really, even tho it’s on fire.
