Content: Still, it’s not the direction any company wants to see its user numbers headed. Twitter is down a total of 15 million monthly users since the figure started declining last year
None of which paints the strongest picture of Twitter, at least in the short term. The company has long known that it ought to address widespread issues on the platform, like harassment, to improve the experience for users. It’s started to take action, but the changes have been small. And as a product, Twitter has iterated at a glacial pace, slowly testing out minor new features to boost engagement. Twitter says it’s seen a 16 percent decline in abuse reports from the same quarter a year ago, and that its enforcement measures have been three times as effective. This year, Twitter says its goal is to “take a more proactive approach to reducing abuse” on the site. The company also plans to keep improving its sign up process so that it’s harder for people — presumably people who have been banned before — to sign up again. Twitter also turned a profit again this quarter, for the fifth quarter in a row — and the fifth quarter ever. Investors aren’t pleased though, as Twitter’s projected earnings for next quarter aren’t as high as they’d hoped.
