The new functionality that the social network Twitter is working on points to a limit on the number of DMs, or direct messages, for users of free accounts.

According to information leaked to the media, Elon Musk seeks to promote the paid subscription, Twitter Blue and, for this, he would impose a limit of 30 direct messages between users who follow each other.

It is possible that the measure, if it crystallizes, will generate some discomfort among the Twitter community. It may also happen that some users leave the social network for another alternative.

However, Twitter has not provided details regarding this supposed limitation on the number of DMs for users of free accounts.

Undoubtedly, the monetization of the service is the new goal of Elon Musk, who has not hidden his desire to apply changes to the platform.

Twitter owner Elon Musk has announced that there will be a “higher-priced” subscription option for users who want an ad-free version of the service.

The subscription without ads is one of the novelties that the owner of the social network is proposing to increase the income of the platform. Daily revenue is down 40% from the previous year, and one of its core businesses, advertising, is not going through its prime, with more than 500 advertisers divesting.

For the moment, Musk seeks to circumvent the situation by implementing payment plans, such as Twitter Blue, which gives access to additional functions, or the business version. To them will be added another one that will allow you to get rid of the ads.

In this sense, the tycoon said through a publication on his Twitter profile that, within the paid version, there will be a “higher-priced subscription that will allow zero ads.”

Likewise, Musk criticized that the ads are “too frequent” and “too big” on the social network, for which he has assured that they are taking measures to “address both” problems in the coming weeks.

It is expected that they will redesign this content to make it less intrusive and more attractive to the audiovisual community, as he assured in the response to a user.

This announcement comes after the confirmation that Twitter no longer allows the operation of the platform in third-party applications such as TweetBot or Twitterrific. The termination is due to the breach by these of the rules of its application programming interface (API), which the company has recently updated.

The current owner of Twitter, Elon Musk, is trying to monetize the social network with plans that change every day, but that seem to be moving towards the establishment of an internal payment system in the long term.

Musk previewed some of his plans during a live meeting held this Wednesday at Spaces, focused on advertisers and the future of the platform, which include money transfers, for which the company has already registered with the Control network. financial crimes, belonging to the office of the United States Department of the Treasury.

Another novelty will be the commitment to video, in order to support the ecosystem of content creators. It would follow the paywall that the company is already working on, which will allow users to unlock audiovisual content in exchange for payment.

In this service, the creators would have control over the price, determining a payment of between one and ten dollars, according to the first information.

Musk explained that in order to bet on video, and for creators to be able to monetize their content, they first have to implement the necessary architecture to be able to support it on the social network.

Likewise, the businessman pointed out that this payment wall, together with the verification process, will be at the base of his payment system. In fact, Musk added that any user who is subscribed to Twitter Blue would have already been verified by the “mainstream payment system.”

Elon Musk has announced a series of changes that he will soon implement on the platform, including a new price for his subscription service, Twitter Blue, which will cost $8.

Twitter Blue is a monthly subscription service that offers exclusive access to premium features that allow you to personalize your Twitter experience. It is available for iOS and Android in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States, and is currently priced at $4.99.

Among some of the features included in this paid service is the ability to customize the icon of the Twitter ‘app’, the theme, Reading Mode, create folders of items saved from the Profile or the Undo tweet function.

According to Musk, this is a “price adjusted by country in proportion to purchasing power parity” and has pointed out that with Blue users will also get priority in responses, mentions and searches, which “is essential to defeat spam and scams”, as well as the possibility of publishing long videos and audios and half of the ads that the subscription now presents.

Musk has finally indicated that all users who are public figures will get a secondary label under their names, something that already happens in the case of politicians. At the moment, it is unknown when the new Twitter Blue will be available.

The owner of the social network has announced these changes days after sources consulted by The Verge reported that he planned to charge users interested in obtaining and maintaining the blue badge of verified accounts.

This feature would be included in Twitter Blue and its price would amount to $19.99; a change that would force verified users to pay for the subscription within 90 days or else they would lose said badge.

La entrada Twitter Blue will be priced at $ 8 apareció primero en Bitfinance.

Elon Musk proposed a series of changes for Twitter Blue, the social network’s premium subscription service, ranging from integrating payment with dogecoin to lowering its price, adapted to the purchasing power of each market.

Musk, who has recently become the largest shareholder of the social network, has been asking for the opinion of users for weeks in search of possible changes. The founder and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX also expressed his wishes from his account on the platform.

One of them is to lower the price of Twitter Blue, the social network’s monthly subscription service, from 3 to 2 dollars, but paying 12 months in advance. The account would also be suspended without the right to a refund in the event that its owner used it for a scam or spam.

Another of Musk’s ideas is to give all Twitter Blue users a verified label. The objective of this measure is to make the armies of bots, which are one of the great problems of the social network, “too expensive to maintain”.

Musk also proposes that, if you pay for twelve months of Twitter Blue in advance, only verified to be delivered to an account 60 days after entering the subscription service.

The cost of the Twitter Blue subscription must be “proportionate” to purchasing power and local currency. At this point, Musk asked if “even an option to pay in Doge” would be a good idea, referring to the cryptocurrency.
