X is losing users in Europe. In a report published as part of X’s compliance with EU laws, the platform revealed that monthly active users in Europe decreased from around 105 million in October 2024 to 95 million as of April 2025. France lost the most users (2.7 million), followed by Poland (1.8 million) and Germany (1.3 million), as pointed out by Politico. A misreported “90-day pause” on tariffs caused a brief market spike. Somewhere in the loop of Reuters / CNBC newswires connected to stock traders’ terminals and the @deitaone account on X that usually reposts wire reports, a comment from Trump economic adviser Kevin Hassett was reported as though the White House would consider a 90-day pause on tariffs for countries other than China. The only problem is that while his response to being asked about a pause in a Fox News interview started with the word “yeah,” it was not a yes to the question being asked. The White House claimed the whole thing was fake news, and prices quickly dropped again.
