I'd try to make Twitter less toxic. For example, I'd study how Twitter mobs form and add measures to slow them down. I'd spend a lot of time thinking about ways to make more money to compensate for the decreased engagement. (The root of the toxicity is chasing engagement.)

I'm old enough to remember how Internet newsgroups were driven to the ground by trolls. Suffice to say that newsgroups were not worried about engagement or even revenue. Give people a venue to speak without facing consequences of any kind and you'll get the same toxicity.
