There was a two-day span where you could buy a verified check next to your name for $8/mo.

This led to an Eli Lilly parody account tweeting that the company would make insulin free, which tanked their stock consequentially.

There were also other parodies like George W talking about the Iraq war and more.

Twitter is a farce now. Used to like it. But now will probably stop using it.

He really is.

I am not even going to lie to you, I have never used Twitter. I never really understood why anyone used it.

Well, Elon has made nothing but a mess so far, hate speech and racial violence conversations have increased almost 10 fold since he took over. he took a toxic social media platform and somehow made it so much worse. Advertisers are jumping ship left and right because it is getting so bad.

Oh wow 😮 that’s not good. I hopped on trying to see a noticeable difference

I don't tweet, but absolutely love the way Twitter gives me direct access to sources that I care to hear from. Them being verified accounts is critical to that core interaction.

I guess the core reason I use it would be ruined if this plan sticks.

He put a paid feature in place that would be noted with a blue checkmark. This puts classes within categories of profiles and intends to legitimatize your account (or not). Equal playing field isn't there anymore.

I don't see Twitter being here much longer sadly. Advertisers are pulling out left and right and ultimately fund twitter's existence. Elon isn't fit to be in the spot he's in.

I've been using Twitter for a while now. There are rumors that he's going to make Twitter a subscription based app. He's already put in place for people to pay monthly subscription for blue check verification.

I use Twitter sporadically. People are upset because of a combination of events, like a massive layoff, $8 verified charges, etc. On the other hand, some people love that he is in charge of Twitter. In my opinion, the guy is a good business man and will run twitter more effectively than before.

Not sure if this is where it started out but it had something to do with giving people access to the blue verification check mark for just $8 per month. Not his wisest move, obviously.

like

Well basically all verified accounts (those who have blue check marks) and those who want to get verified are obliged to pay a subscription fee. But I did hear that it was temporarily unavailable after impostor accounts erupt on twitter.

I use Twitter once in a blue moon. I am a Facebook person and never really got into Twitter all that much.
