Who knew that removing functionality and limiting access to your product was the path to social media success.

I think they also plan to block you viewing Reddit in mobile browsers so you must get their app.

Spez literally said in an interview that Musk’s handling of twitter is what inspired him so

I don’t see the logic in making this change. Is someone supposed to want to join blue just so they can DM people that haven’t changed the default setting?

Yes.

It’s a pay-to-harass scheme.

But you can change it back. Here’s how.

At this point, why even bother?

And you’re relying on anyone else you want to DM changing that setting too. Otherwise, you’re SOL even if you’ve changed it on your end.
