Twitter says first quarter profit triples on ad demand, daily users upTwitter Inc. on Tuesday said earnings in the first three months of the year more than tripled on strong ad demand while user numbers posted healthy growth. I wouldn't hesitate to guess that a large part of the increase in users is primarily in North America where both the US and Canada have elections on the horizon I also would hesitate to guess that most are trolls or 'fake accounts' set up primarily because of those elections twitter is starting to annoy the hell out of me with ads being added everywhere. Promoted tweets that take up the whole screen. Pre-roll video ads that are longer than the very short video in user's tweets. It's getting ridiculous now and is very off-putting. 😠🖓 Maybe because Facebook and Instagram were down more often that people were using more Twitter to check if the other two were down?
