News, businesses, and celebrities continue to use it for some reason. It won’t die until they stop.
Look how deep Twitter is in sports reporting. Any article about an event in a game (a goal, a hit in hockey, etc.) has the video… from Twitter. It’s the default and just won’t stop. Until that mindset changes, I’m afraid Twitter will continue to exist.
Just because people want to hear about celebrities, doesn’t make them relevant. News, Business, and Politics has an effect on your daily life and quality of life. Should effect how you vote, where you shop, or where you look for a job, etc.
Celebrities do not. They’re propping up a site run by a eugenics supporter because they’re voyeurs.
The “people want to hear about celebrities” part is relevant to the fact that interests drive a big part of the audience to the site. Meaning, you and I both want celebrities to be off Twitter because if we can convince them to go elsewhere, that would be an effective way to cripple Twitter.
Complaining that people like celebrities when they’re not “relevant to your daily life” doesn’t really do anything to further your goals. It just makes you sound like an asshole who isn’t relatable to the kind of people that we want to listen to us.

News and business can be found on News sites. Celebrities are irrelevant.
Maybe to you, but not to the masses.
Like it or not, people are interested in celebrities. I wouldn’t call that irrelevant in the attention economy.

Cool, cool.
I just separate “wants” and “needs” and wants aren’t important enough to a site run like someone like Musk.
