Twitter was profitable for two years, 2018 and 2019.

My understanding is the majority of those loss years was due to how they accounted for RSUs, however I can’t find that easily right now.

I don’t get the impression that it was at all close to imploding pre-musk. Do you have any links to back up that claim?

Also "technically profitable" in 2021 -- except for a $760M legal settlement they had to pay out which dropped them to a ~$490M loss.
