Twitter has had 300m "accounts" since 2015 that has only grown to ~396m in 7 years? The only thing that has changed is Twitter's ability to detect spam and bot accounts and manipulate what you see and who you see via the algorithms. It wouldn't be hard for them to lie and hid the amount of bots registered without removing those bots, because they're using them for propaganda.
They've turned dead/abandoned accounts into propaganda bot accounts, which is why you see some real people with real names carpet bombing with shitlib tweets. And of course they've made a bunch of new ones, especially in the year leading up to the 2020 election.
And none of this is factoring in real people then engaging and retweeting these bot account tweets.
It's upwards of 65% bots and 30% bots at minimum.
