This is a clear sign. If you get thousands of responses on Twitter, and no interest whatsoever on your personal platform, your only value to those who used to engage is the spectacle you created in that other environment.

Twenty year old blog technology with no social aspect (and fake upvote buttons) is hardly spectacular. It's not the game changer he promised.
