I did a quick check of online traffic, and where Twitter was once bigger than Facebook, FB now sees 5.5x as much traffic per week than "Twitter".
1.3B organic visits per week is nothing to sneeze at, but where they were once ranked #2 or #3 for the busiest website, they are now #9 and sinking fast. #Musk #MoreMoneyThanBrains

Not nearly enough.
The story of #Tesla reminds me of a #bubble, very much like the excellent article Cory @pluralistic wrote last December about two kinds of (tech) bubbles.*
Even though Tesla is just a company, its market cap and the weight of all of the #Musk brands taken together easily make up for lack of other competitors in this hypothesis.
