    It’s hard to even laugh any longer… this is just sad. This guy is the worst tech CEO the world has seen in some time…

    Okay, so now a data scraping organisation can pay $8 a month and get access to 10x the content of a free user.

    This is 100% a money thing and nothing to do with protecting the user experience.

    The whole point of social media is to have people on there as long as possible so I have no idea what he’s doing. He even tweeted that the verified people would only have 1 hour and 9 minutes and they have 6,000 posts they can view. People who aren’t verified have 600 posts and new accounts who aren’t verified have 300. They’d only be on the app for 10 minutes.

    I’ve been having problems with Twitter before this news came out. I can only like a certain number of posts before they think I’m a bot and won’t let me like, retweet, or even bookmark. Yesterday on browser, I read too many posts and while I could like, it wouldn’t let me read comments. Good job Apartheid Clyde
