How to find inactive Twitter accounts

There are lots of inactive users on Twitter. Inactive Twitter accounts are created but not used by their users for weeks, months, and even years. So, why don’t you remove inactive Twitter accounts?

Inactive Twitter accounts do not engage with you on Twitter. They are just in your follower or friends list, and they will never be interacting with your Twitter account probably.

According to the Inactive account policy of Twitter, inactivity is based on logging in. So, to keep your Twitter account alive, you should be sure to log in once at least every six months.

“We encourage people to actively log in and use Twitter when they register an account. To keep your account active, be sure to log in at least every 6 months. Accounts may be permanently removed due to prolonged inactivity.”

However, inactive accounts could also be defined as Twitter accounts logging in but not engaging anyway via liking, retweeting, replying, etc.

Twitter will do nothing for those ‘ghost accounts,’ which can also be defined as inactive accounts. So, it’s better to remove those inactive Twitter accounts to have a better start in 2023.
