The nonprofit says it’s leaving because ‘the math hasn’t worked out for a while now.‘
The digital privacy nonprofit Electronic Frontier Foundation will no longer be posting on X as of Thursday, largely due to a sharp decline in views on the platform over the past several years.
In a blog post announcing the departure, EFF’s social media and video manager Kenyatta Thomas explained that the nonprofit used to get 50 to 100 million impressions per month on X, but that has changed.
“Last year, our 1,500 posts earned roughly 13 million impressions for the entire year.
To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago.”
The Electronic Frontier Foundation will still be sharing content around digital privacy and free speech on its other social media channels, including on Bluesky , Mastodon , LinkedIn , Instagram , TikTok , Facebook , and YouTube .
