Big parts of the youth did not use twitter. Twitter had at its peak about 500mio active users. Instagram has 2.4 billion, tiktok 1 billion, snapchat 750mio. The relevancy of twitter is highly skewed, because the media used it a lot.

Wow crazy that so many people use those social media platforms. I have never used any of them.

I mainly use Snapchat just to keep the pointless streaks going. Never seen an ad in Snapchat for years.
