Why are users upset with Twitter after Musk took over the platform?
Twitter has been having billions of users on the platform. Though even before Twitter was given to Musk, users had some problems with the platform. It seems the scenario has become even worse after Musk came on board as the owner of it.
What I’m hearing from Twitter employees; It looks like roughly 75% of the remaining 3,700ish Twitter employees have not opted to stay after the “hardcore” email.

Even though the deadline has passed, everyone still has access to their systems.
The reason why users are not liking the social media platform anymore is that they are upset with the changes on the platform. Be it the $8 per month paid verification plan of Twitter or Musk’s decision of firing staff from the platform is all that’s not acceptable to the users.
In fact, after giving the ultimatum of accepting Twitter 2.0 till 17th November. Current staffs of Twitter are to decide whether to accept the changes being made or simply leave. Owing to which almost 75% of the existing employees have already denied the changes and thousands have resigned as well.
