X is shutting down Communities because of low usage and lots of spam

Launched in 2021, when the company was still known as Twitter, Communities were meant to provide the social network’s users with a place to connect with each other around shared interests. Now, X is shutting down the feature for good, saying it was overrun with spam and a headache to manage. Plus, noted X’s head of product Nikitia Bier, hardly anyone was using them.
