Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, announced that X, previously known as Twitter, has achieved the status of the number one news app on the App Store in India. This announcement was made through a post on X, where Musk stated, "X is now number 1 for news in India."
The news was initially shared by the X handle Dogedesigner, which also introduced a new feature on X that allows users to rewind live videos.
India is the third-largest country in terms of X users, with over 25 million users. Following the announcement, Musk's followers expressed their excitement, with one user, Hitman Hub, noting X's top position in countries like Australia, Germany, and Brazil. Another user, Raghu Rajaram, praised X for changing the media landscape.
However, after the 2024 U.S. presidential election, which saw Donald Trump win, X experienced a significant user decline, with over 115,000 U.S. users deactivating their accounts. Many users migrated to Bluesky, which saw its user base double to 15 million, gaining 1 million new sign-ups in just one week.
