The new king of Twitter is none other than its owner. Elon Musk has become the most followed person on the social network. He thus dethrones Barack Obama, the former president of the United States. Now, the Twitter kingpin has more than 133.05 million subscribers.
This is a real performance since the netizen Sawyer Merritt, who particularly follows the news of the businessman, specifies that Elon Musk has gained more than 100,000 subscribers per day on average. This change at the top of the ranking is confirmed by the dynamic list established by Wikipedia.
an ambition assumed
As Tech&Co had pointed out, the entrepreneur’s goal of being the most followed person on his own platform was surely met for several months. In February, Elon Musk trailed Barack Obama by nearly five million subscribers. He had then run tests to ensure the reach of his posts.
Because this news can only remind of the whims of the billionaire. A few weeks ago, Elon Musk strongly complained about the drop in popularity of his tweets. He even went so far as to fire one of Twitter’s technical directors. In the process, the leader literally flooded the social network. A technique that now seems to have paid off.
