Elon Musk has indicated that X, formerly known as Twitter, is preparing to charge all users for accessing the platform.
The X owner said erecting a paywall around the business would ward off the bots, or automated accounts, that have become a bugbear for Musk.
Speaking in a meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, the Tesla CEO and world’s richest person suggested that X was going to charge its user base. Currently, Twitter only charges users for its subscription service X Premium, which offers perks such as a verified account checkmark and costs $11 a month in the US for iPhones and £11 in the UK.
I’ll stick with lemmy and kbin. Mastodon sucks.
I have to say it didn’t work for me, Calckey is much better but I may just not be a microblogging person as I prefer it over here.
Looking up Calckey now.
But I like Kbin because it combines a reddit clone with a Twitter clone for each sub.
Calckey recently rebranded to firefish.social
I migrated my mastodon account - it’s much better in every way. (no offense intended to Mastodon)
Yes, I haven’t tried kbin as I’ve been happy on Lemmy. It would not surprise me if Lemmy introduced a feature to follow people that would open it up more to the Fediverse.
@sentient_loom #kbin for the win!
