After Trump's win, X platform sees biggest traffic and user exodus of 2024
Social network X hit its highest traffic numbers of 2024 when **Trump** won presidency‚ but also lost record number of users that day. Platformʼs future remains unclear as users seek new digital homes
The social-media platform X experienced its peak 2024 web-traffic during Donald Trumpʼs election victory but paradoxically lost more users that day than any other time this year (according to analytics company Similarweb)
The mass-exodus comes as Xʼs owner Elon Musk takes up a key-role in Trumpʼs future administration: Musk used both his social platform and personal wealth to back-up the presidential campaign
While previous user migrations often led to Metaʼs Threads — owned by fellow tech-giant Mark Zuckerberg — which got about 275M sign-ups since its mid-2023 launch; this time users seem to be looking elsewhere for their social-media needs
These developments show how social-media landscape keeps changing as platforms deal with user trust‚ content rules and political ties: Xʼs situation demonstrates the complex relationship between tech-leadership and politics in todays digital world
