#15I wonder if the premium tier of the API has contributed towards this?
No just cut back on stock options aka a paycut for the staff.

No; but twitter will likely get a better conversion rate if they tell people what it is they are buying and the cost, prior to handing over their payment details

No. Handing over card details just pre-authorizes them to make transactions later.

#18Twitter loves Trump.
It's not just twitter... the whole profit center around online communities is based on active communities. Most topics are cyclical - once the Superbowl is over, it's hard to keep a football community active. Only so many people are interested in the draft, in coaching changes, etc.
But throw in some controversy and all of a sudden everything lights up again.
The problem, or _a_ problem, is that people can only handle so much controversy. They have lives to lead. They _need_ to be happy. But as more and more profit centers are tied to active online communities, and as people who run those communities strive to keep people active, and since controversy is as easy a tool to use as there is in the toolbox... Well the end result is that online interaction shifts from being something that brings people together into something unhealthy.
Don't get me wrong, Twitter is a great tool for getting up to the moment information out there and for consuming it. I just wonder what there bottom line would look like if Trumps Tweets weren't making headlines 3 times a week.
The social health issue is one for all companies that compete in the social media space to figure out.

It's not a whisper rumor. That speculation has been extremely rampant for years at this point.
