Elon Musk, the proprietor of social media platform X (formerly Twitter), responded with a simple "Cool" when an X user declared that X is now India's #1 news app on Apple App Store. The milestone represents a watershed moment in how Indian millennials and Gen Z consume news—favoring fast, social, and algorithm-driven content over traditional media. While some celebrated X's ascent, others utilized the platform to voice claims of scams and voice calls for geo-restrictions in India. The boom follows Musk's growing interest in India, as he recently met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss cooperation on tech. X's top spot on Apple devices is a milestone for India's digital media landscape, which reflects changing consumption patterns and the growing dominance of the platform.
