Elon Musk Claims Twitter Has Seen a 'Dramatic Improvement'
But there seems to be something missing.
Elon Musk continues to preach that his acquisition of Twitter has been positive for the social media outlet.
Musk on Tuesday tweeted that the social media platform has improved in terms of the content posted.

“Both quality & quantity of high quality posts of all kinds (short text, long essays, pictures, audio & video) have improved dramatically,” Musk said in a tweet.
Twitter has made many changes since Musk took over in late October. Some of the changes include Twitter Blue and the infamous blue check verification that now charges users $8 per month, the reinstatement of previously banned accounts like Donald Trump, and the ability to tweet longer text and video posts.
Musk believed that the previous Twitter had begun to hinder free speech with its verification systems and other methods, and his moves on the platform have trended toward what he believes to provide that freedom. His latest tweet connotes that Twitter, which he referred to as “humanity’s digital public square,” is trending toward the direction he envisioned.
But some were quick to point out one missing thing about what Musk said: He did not provide proof to back up his claims.
Some asked for any metrics to describe what Musk meant. Whatever Musk defined as “high quality” or the numbers to show that there was an improved quantity of posts were not defined by Musk in his tweet nor have they been included as of this writing.
It’s difficult to believe Musk doesn’t have some figures to back up -- or dispute -- his claims considering his success as a businessman. But on his Twitter, Musk has the freedom to provide or withhold information as he so chooses.
