Almost none of these predictions have come true, and while I suppose they may eventually, the posts/articles getting increasingly difficult to pay attention to.
Every time I see another of these my reaction is “god, another one?” I’ve been struggling to evaluate these articles on the merits, I’m sure I’m not alone.
If you want to write an article like this and avoid this problem I recommend that you take extreme care to at least pretend Elon failing wouldn’t give you profound schadenfreude.

On top of this, the platform's recent efforts to limit API usage have negatively affected both regular users and SaaS products that rely on Twitter analytics. With these mounting challenges, the company's survival is increasingly uncertain, and some are predicting bankruptcy as a potential outcome. The long-term impact of these developments remains to be seen.

many of these complaints seem more political than practical. I understand that a set of people exists who are dissatisfied with twitter and/or are eagerly anticipating some grand implosion of the company, but many more people than this set use the platform, so questions like "how much longer can twitter last, really?" come across as having come from a very insulated ideological bubble, rather than taking the entire spectrum of experiences had by twitter users into account.
