Now why would they want to do that, seems odd. Wouldnt they want to show they are supporting the free speech (their CEO says this is the case) platform, what would it gain you to hide this badge?

So I guess now you can get your tweets pushed without disclosing that you payed for it…?

Again this still feels like they are dishonestly trying to achieve something. Is there another app out there like this that allows this kind of option?

I believe you get some premium features along with the subscribtion which probably is the main reason people are paying for it though I’m sure some just want the blue tick too.

why hide it in this case then, you got your features (some seem to think that being able to push their messages and have them at the top is the one a lot are going for that want to have the blue tick removed) what would be your reason to be like I dont need people to see that.

You get to keep the premium features even if you hide the blue checkmark. There’s no downside to it.
