Six months later, we can see that the effects of leaving Twitter have been negligible. A memo circulated to NPR staff says traffic has dropped by only a single percentage point as a result of leaving Twitter, now officially renamed X, though traffic from the platform was small already and accounted for just under two percent of traffic before the posting stopped.

My understanding is clickthrough on Twitter has always been pretty low as compared to Facebook or Reddit.

People generally don't go to Twitter to click on articles.
