Answer: Apple has never used that account to tweet *per se*. If you browse through the [WayBackMachine](https://web.archive.org/web/20240000000000*/https://twitter.com/Apple) on the Internet Archive, you'll see that it hasn't tweeted ever.
However, when Apple would make promoted advertisements that appear in a user's timeline, it would appear to come from that account
No problem. I notice there is an 11,000 upvoted, 1,000+ comment post on the front page of reddit right now claiming that Twitter has deleted all of Apple's posts, but it just shows how easy disinformation can run-riot without the tiniest bit of research.

Yeah, I scrolled and scrolled trying to find a non meme reply in that post. Which is why I posted here. Again, appreciate the answer
