In an interview with the BBC last month, CEO Elon Musk said he had fired more than 6,000 people since taking over Twitter.

Twitter will get a new CEO in six weeks. Twitter owner Elon Musk announced recently that Linda Yaccarino will take the top job. Yaccarino too has officially confirmed that she is taking over as CEO of the microblogging platform. Yaccarino, chairman of global advertising and partnerships at NBCUniversal, said that she has been inspired by owner Musk's vision to create a brighter future.

After Musk acquired Twitter in October, the social media firm faced months of chaos, including layoffs of thousands of employees, criticism over lax content moderation, and an exodus of many advertisers who did not want their ads appearing next to inappropriate content.

Users get a Twitter-like microblogging experience, according to screenshots provided to media, suggesting that Meta Platforms has been gearing up to directly challenge the platform after Musk's tumultuous ownership has resulted in a series of unpopular changes that have turned off users and advertisers.

Meta's Threads racked up more than 30 million sign-ups within about 18 hours of its launch, emerging as the first real threat to Elon Musk-owned Twitter, as it took advantage of its access to billions of Instagram users and a similar look to that of its rival.

In order to take on the professional social networking platform LinkedIn, Twitter appears to be working on a job posting feature that will allow verified organisations to post job listings on their profiles

The 52-year-old Tesla founder has previously said that his rocky takeover of Twitter last year was "an accelerant to creating X, the everything app," a reference to the X.com company he founded in 1999, a later version of which went on to become PayPal, a payments giant.

Since taking over Twitter last November, Tesla chief Elon Musk has transformed it. From selling the verified badge for $8 a month to letting creators monetise their content, Musk has revamped many things at the microblogging site, except for its iconic bird logo. That, however, is about to change.

The success of Threads raises questions about Twitter's future. Amid massive layoffs and declining ad revenue, Twitter faces a turbulent time, further exacerbated by Elon Musk's renaming of the platform to X.
