AFAICT, no one really uses Twitter anymore, certainly not for actual interaction outside of influencers and streamers.

Instead, it’s become an easy billboard for companies to post their news. The alternative, of course, would be to make their own websites and post news there. However, it’s far simpler for users to search a company on Twitter than to guess around for their website URL on Google (god forbid you have multiple sites).
