“Twitter Blue subscribers can now hide their checkmarks”
Elon managed to take the once-coveted blue check and turned it into something that’s embarrassing enough to warrant wanting to hide it 😂

So they’re effectively paying for nothing now if they hide the blue check mark right?
They probably still get the engagement boost by putting their replies at the top. This is insidious. I’ve been blocking most blue checks but this might make Twitter unusable.
Ah, so like nazis can pay for blue, get their shit at the top of the feed, and then Twitter can pretend that this is just a naturally popular opinion and nobody can prove that they’re pushing nazi opinions for money?
It all makes sense now!
For me it was already unusable. The Canadian trending page is always full of right wing conspiracy and most posts have some sort of hate speech comments.
Same as the US trending page.
Oh, so like reddit.
Idk reddit has always been pretty liberal for the most part. Of course there are right wing subs but overall the site is pretty left leaning.
not in canada it wasn’t. all the US politics is very left-leaning, but the canadian right really took over on reddit. there were a few left-wing subs like /r/onguardforthee, but most of the canada-related subs were hard right-wing.
Liberal in a practicall sense which is the majority of people. although they have tendency to larp as socialists
Eh. I disagree. If you look at /r/politics it’s like 90% neoliberals commenting.
What is a neoliberal to you?

this is the straw that breaks the camel’s back, eh?
No, they also get higher limits, if I understand correctly. Longer messages and videos, more DMs, looking at more posts, etc.
Those are paid features?
Jesus Christ.
paid accounts get their posts ranked higher (supposedly)
Ah right, I forgot about those new features but it seemed liked the initial benefit was just the blue check mark
