It's impossible to know now that Twitter is private and does not have to disclose quarterly results publicly.

That is partly true. Some parts we can see are:

- Are there high-quality brand ads running? (Fewer.)

- is there more hate speech? (Yes.)

- Is it plausible that check-mark and "coin" revenue can replace ad income (No.)

oh yeah, no doubt that their revenues will be lower, with the departure of advertisers. What I meant was that the decline will not be as apparent due to them no longer being public.

I haven't noticed more hate speech.

That might say more about you and who you follow than about twitter overall. It's possible you're not exposed to it, it's also possible you are seeing hate speech that you would not classify as hate speech.

There has definitely been a rise in hate speech on twitter since mush took over.
