Verified accounts are limited to reading 6,000 posts a day, he tweeted, while unverified accounts are limited to just 600. New unverified accounts are at 300 posts a day.
This is absolute amateur hour. Why are people still trying to use Twitter.
Especially considering the way twitter counts a “view” is if the tweet shows up in your app’s viewport, at all. So simply scrolling through the timeline consumes “views” - you could run up against this limit in 10-15 minutes of scrolling.
It’s incredibly stupid.
This is what I was wondering. I don’t use Twitter so 600 sounds like a lot but I was wondering how much it actually was. Someone else said they blew through it in like 15 minutes
Even 6000 is nothing. I remember when I used to be on the platform for hours per day, following hundreds of active users, and actively sharing to thousand of users… I’m not paying then (wasn’t an option) and I’m not paying now (not interested), but even if I did, I’d go through that in minutes!
Who the fuck posts 300 tweets a day?
Edit: Nvm, I apparantly can’t read lol
This is all fucking hilarious at this point. He’s stripped any and all value from Twitter. Glad I already put a read limit of 0 in place.
How to dismantle a decent and viable company in any % record time speedrun.
This is crazy. I don’t know what Elon is doing. Even limiting his paying users is cringe.
Sounds like a tiered subscription is incoming. My hope is that Twitter implodes completely instead of just becoming a right wing echo chamber like it’s trending towards now.
What… Huh?? Twitter is limiting the amount of engagement users are allowed to have? Is that what’s going on here? Do they actually think that this will make more money or are they just really insistent on making Twitter users touch grass?
This is crazy. I want to see if it actually blocks you from reading tweets. The article didn’t say when this goes into effect though.
