The decline was inevitable. What did surprise me, and is I guess a sign of ex-Twitter engineer competence, is that the platform did not succumb to entropy weeks after the first wave of mass layoffs. I expected events like "Twitter down for days because team responsible for renewing SSL certificates no longer exists" or "posting new tweets takes hours because the DBA team was decimated and no one remembered to repartition the tables".
