To be fair, twitter hasn’t really competed or been comparable to Meta for a while.

Not saying that they aren’t competitors, but it is more like they have been out-executed by Meta even before Musk’s acquisition. Way before.

To be more fair, any company being compared to FB would mostly look worse.

Nvidia in same timeframe far outgrew Meta, maybe no other major ones, except maybe netflix recovering from an even earlier drop. A good portion of Meta's gain was just getting back to where they were before the Apple store changes induced drop (that also hit Twitter).
