While millions online saw Twitter as a sinking ship amid reportedly hundreds of employees quitting, Elon Musk claimed the company saw an all-time high in usage.

will tell ya the reports of Twitter's death are greatly exaggerated -- in fact, although news spread quickly the app's on the verge of shutdown, Elon says it had one of its best days ever.

Thursday night, while #RIPTwitter became the number 1 trending topic in the U.S., the Chief Twit himself tweeted,"We just hit another all-time high in Twitter usage lol ... let that sink in."for people within the company to work"long hours at high intensity" or get booted. The deadline for jumping ship or staying aboard was reportedly Thursday at 5 PM ... and it looks like a good amount were fine with saying goodbye.

The reported mass jump prompted millions of tweeters to take it as a sign of the end for the bird app ... although the surge to which Elon referred might have a lot to do with people using the"dead" platform to talk about its death.

I believe it. He’s a businessman. He could turn a rock into gold. Although due to his Asperger’s he may not be the best at communicating (which is probably why he likes twitter because it helps him communicate) he is a high functioning genius.

That was just people saying goodbye to Twitter

He's taunting them by telling us that he's going to reinstate Trump on Twitter Do you really think that's smart Elon when we're the ones being afflicted by this man and his choices.. Why do we support someone who puts themselves over humanity that's a damn shame..boycottElonMusk

Yeah if you look at how many hours since people have tweeted it ain't poppin he's going to say anything to get this attention stop giving it to him TMZ they're consequences for his arrogancy..Trump follower he is to the point he wants to put him back on Twitter. Taunting users 🤢

His ex employees were just dead weight. Demanding an employee work their normal shift and go into the office is not arbitrary or vicious. These pampered children need to wake up and start living in the real world. Most people would appreciate the perks they get

I joined Twitter recently. It seems to be going great!

Everyone always wants to stop and see the accident

Funny thing is Elon may prove Twitter has been over staffed for a long time now.

If Twitter had to shutdown because of lack of staff, they would reopen when they hire new people.

I know Trump is a classless lying machine, but Trump seems to have more integrity, better character than Elon

This has been the most tweeting I've done in a decade lol

TMZ is on Twitter so are all the liberals and Joe Biden , so what’s the problem ?

Gee it’s not like Elon Musk isn’t a proven liar and con artist already…

The haters are on Twitter the Elon supporters are on Twitter so it's a win win for Musk

Twitters doing better than ever.

So did banks in 1929

It seems dead as a doornail around here tonight.

Doesn’t mean that Twitter 2.0 doesn’t suck. elonmusk

🥲 babies. FitterTwitter FitterTwitter FitterTwitter

Did they make any money tho?

TwitterLemmings It was great entertainment! Hahahaha!

What!? lol far from sinking. Delusional liberals. Guess what people broke the story he would fire 75% of his workforce. Well he said that wasn’t true and he chose a different route. Still took our 75% stealth mode. Eat it!

He claims. You post. But if he won’t tell the truth you must do the journalism to debunk rather than repeat his lies.

Wait did he figure out the bot issue? Or is he ignoring that to make the usage statement.

I think that’s because everyone is telling everyone else who they can be found on other platforms after twitter flushed down the toilet bowl. just a thought.

Time will tell. And I’m here for whatever outcome yields!

Love Elon

Of course. Everybody saying their Fucking goodbyes

Sounds like a lot of dead weight is gone

That’s because the vitality the company has to do with the traffic and not the employees. Employees can be replaced.

Lmao! they act like Elon who he is cuz of them 🤣😂 Keep doing your thing Elon!

Human nature tends to want those with money and power to fail because they themselves achieved very little - if anything noteworthy.

of course he'd say that he has 44 billion to lose .

When you toss dead weight or as we have here, it jumping off the boat all by itself… it doesn’t make the boat sink does it.

Everybody is busy archiving their messages.

And the Titanic had the most people ever on deck as it sank.

It's true my follower count went from 55 to 57 yesterday.

elonmusk for president

LIAR

I gotta be honest...WHO CARES, lol. I get on here when I am a little buzzed, and a little mouthy. I grew up a generation that was taught to not give into peer pressure. Taught not to care what other people think, to keep my dirty laundry out of the public. THANKS MOM AND DAD

Literally nobody thought that. Even the people saying it know it was wishful thinking at best. TMZ is a clown network 🤣🤣🤣

🤔

Looking at his accomplishments elonmusk will NEVER LET THIS FAIL... HardWork success

All the chomo ssex ppl mad they can't cancel anyone on Twitter nomore. Let th chomos go bye 🤡

Replacing all the people that quit their jobs because they didn’t want to return to a job sitting at a desk - see ya suckers - easily replaced

Can’t wait to watch my new favorite reality show “Elon in Charge”.

And he’s lying

What shutdown panic?

Wait for it. Elon is going to burn this mf’er to the ground. People will be on TikTok making RIP bird videos 😂

😎🙌

It's wierd to me that people think the dude that came up with self driving cars and rocket ships would fail because a group of entitled snowflakes overestimated their skill sets 🤣🤣🤣

I understand there might be some job openings.

It’s a like a sell off, going out of business sale.

It’s just noise and tantrum coming from the lefties that got axed from Twitter. The reality is that people want good jobs/careers and that’s what Twitter offers. Here’s to the success of Twitter 2.0 with new blood and fresh eyes.

Because the administrators was the problem the word is out that gatekeepers are fired. Freedom of speech rules.

Everything was ran by algorithm anyway 🤣

Bro…let them QUIT. They don’t belong there anyways.

All time high of people deleting there accounts 😂😂😂😂

Everyone leaving a negative comment in this thread! Mic drop…..🤣

Elon lives in his own reality. Unlike the rest of us. The spin is not working

to tweet about butts apparently

Elon is goated at being a troll lmao

Good job short-sellers aren’t involved . They would destroy it!

Yeah because everyone were saying their goodbyes and making funeral arrangements for this bird app.

After a loud noise Titanic´s dock hits an all-time high of curious passengers

I mean, everybody dey tweet their last tweet. Of course. 🥲

I mean, Twitter was booming yesterday. 🤷🏻‍♂️

'millions'

🖕

rubberneckers. We all slow down to see the crash on the highway, same here.

Yes, to see if it crashed

Elon Musk wants Twitter staff to work constantly, just like other CEOsElon Musk's demands to make Twitter workers put in 'long hours at high intensity' is actually what many employers want, but won't say And those employers suck. Elon's inner Montgomery Burns is in full flower. These are also the type of employers that can never keep employees long‼️ Having money or owning a business doesn’t mean you should own any & every business‼️ He’s clearly NOT a tech company guy & is in over his head‼️ I know elonmusk wishes he never bought Twitter‼️🤔🤷🏾‍♀️🙄🤦🏾‍♀️
