Obviously the people who use it think it's worth using. Either way, the point isn't how bad Twitter is in your personal opinion, the point the author rightly makes is that it will get worse.

I was referring to the favorable state of Twitter OP was describing, which doesn’t hold up IMO.

I‘m an ex heavy Twitter user. I primarily use it for keeping up to date with tech, but the signal/noise ratio is not great nowadays. I can see myself switching to Reddit and HN completely.

The author is definitely projecting, but he's basing his projection on real signals: increases in hate speech, advertisers leaving, mastodon currently trending, etc.
