y'know, I've been thinking. I dont even know if this is possible, but ever since he changed the branding from Twitter to X, all that's in the back of my kind is that in a few years, this site is going to discontinue itself because of something that happened behind the scenes.

I hope that this happens someday. While I don't believe in what the news has to say, this might aswell be taken into account for how many things Musk has done to ruin the app. Making Tweetdeck as a premium thing was the final nail in the coffin for me.

Musky boi impulse bought a free app because his wife left him for a woman, now he’s making everyone pay for his mistake instead of going to therapy. This has been the fate of Twitter since 2022

Isn't even true, check the community note

The post refers to a recent interview with the PM of Israel, where Elon stated they will introduce "lower tier pricing" for premium. There is no mention of charging everyone to use X.


Looks like I got hit with more misinformation from the same person who said that Musk will be changing the blocking feature and to this day, nothing has changed.

Still not using the platform much cause they removed TweetDeck for public users.

These multi billion dollar companies keep trying to pinch every penny they can.
To be fair, this time it's just Musk trying to make back the 44B he spent in an extremely stupid decision he made instead of going to therapy.

"Free", "free", everyone expects everything to be "free"; there's no such thing as "free", someone has to pay for it :angry:
It's called "social media" not "socialist media" you bunch of commies :angry:

Clearly he was talking about charging everyone to use X

If he goes ahead with it then there will be two tiers of pricing, x premium and everyone else.

How could it achieve the stated aim of getting rid of bots, unless they charge everyone?

    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!
