Eh, it doesn't seem that dead to me. I do see a decent number of posts from folks with the same interests there, as well as a fair few reactions on each of my own posts. It's about the same number as on BlueSky, and maybe about half what I'd get on a popular Mastodon post.
However, it's certainly less active than it used to be, and in my opinion, that's true of most other social media services nowadays as well. Feels like the end result of Twitter's decline is less 'people are going to alternative services' and more 'people are moving away from the microblogging format altogether'.
