Verdict
Third-party analytics consistently show X's DAU at approximately 250M vs Instagram's 2B+ DAU.
Full Analysis
Multiple independent analytics firms (Sensor Tower, data.ai, Similarweb) estimate X's daily active users between 200-270 million as of Q1 2026. Instagram's DAU consistently exceeds 2 billion according to Meta's own filings and independent verification. X has not provided audited user numbers since going private. The claim is off by approximately an order of magnitude.
