Stephen Hawking did post to Twitter. He used Twitter to communicate about science, the future of humanity, and important causes like climate change. One of his first tweets was in 2014 when he used the platform to raise awareness about ALS, the disease he had lived with for decades. While not prolific on Twitter, the posts reflected his passion for science, space exploration, and human progress.

At least, according to ChatGPT.
