pay $22/month and still see ads

lmao

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago

It's really duxking funny to think of other services that cost that much and consider musk thinks a Twitter blue subscription is of equal value.

Also lmao at locking the font for sarcasm behind a paywall.

To a guy like Musk and his friends, $22/mo must feel absolutely trivial. Also, I just don't think they give a shit about the hoi polloi. They've ingested the Andrew Tate "that's poor guy shit!" energy and just assume everyone burns through cash without any real clue how much they're spending. Anyone who can't do that must not be worth cultivating as a subscriber.

That, or they've finally decided to try and squeeze the folks running bot accounts for all their worth.

is this a price increase on what they used to sell for $8, or a new tier?

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago

They have 3 tiers.

Basic: $4.00, longer posts, edit, download videos

"Premium": $11.00, Basic tier features, analytics, allegedly fewer ads, and a blue checkmark(and a function to hide said checkmark)

"Premium+": $22.00, "Premium but allegedly no ads, and "largest reply boost."

but this is $22 and says it has half the rate of ads

(and a function to hide said checkmark)

Lmaoooooooooooo ok that's why so many of the top comments are shit but don't have checkmarks, they're hiding them.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

lmao so paying them 48 bucks a year doesn't even give a checkmark?

I'm still convinced Elon is trying to purposefully run this into the dirt

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Right? Not even some shitty Reddit Silver style hand-drawn checkmark like the ancients used. Insulting

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It should be the one where you can't hide the checkmark. It wouldn't entice new users, obviously, but it'd get the existing dumbasses to upgrade

He just wants to boost the opinions of capitalists

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

Or you could download Fluff Busting Purity for 0$ and see 0 ads, ever.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago

Or you could delete Xitter and see no ads

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Bonus: you no longer see Shitter posts

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

LOL PAYING $22 A MONTH AND YOU STILL SEE ADS

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Even a penny paid to Le Epic X is an invitation for more data mining and other intrusive bullshit. stalin-nyet
