New Delhi: A day after Elon Musk issued an ultimatum asking Twitter staff to commit to a “hardcore” work environment or accept a buyout, reports suggested that hundreds of employees put down their papers.
Many Twitter users had already been sulking over the changes made in the microblogging platform since the Tesla CEO's takeover. Now, the mass resignation has added to the concerns about the company's future.
The hashtag “RIPTwitter” started trending on Twitter where users shared hilarious memes and posts while highlighting that the platform might soon shut down.
For many, Twitter seemed to be on the brink of collapse, considering the chaos it has witnessed in the past few weeks.

One suggested a method to get Twitter back on track in case it stops working.
If Twitter stops working tonight, just pull out the cartridge, give it a good blow, and it should start working again. #RIPTwitter
