By that exact metric Twitter is declining. Less twitter users, less engagement, less return on investment for ads on the platform. That said, the decline is only something like 360M to 330M over a few years, not a huge deal.

A caveat to this is most ads go through an automated bidding process similar to Google's advertisement, and the companies only pay per ad seen by a user.
