X (TWITTER as-was):
A few months ago the Portuguese, Spanish and Canada-EN accounts were devolved to volunteers in Brazil, Spain and Canada. As a result changes to tweet frequency and format have been introduced. This may have had an effect on our numbers.
No concerted effort was made in the past month to increase our numbers for these accounts.
We experienced some decline in accounts that usually experience slow growth. This may be the result of trade unionists closing their Twitter accounts and moving to other platforms (such as Mastodon).
