- judge2020 5y agoSuper Follows work well, Twitter Blue just doesn't have much pull to it since it doesn't allow editing tweets. People won't drop Patreon immediately, but over time we'll see Super Follows more since Twitter can provide more chances of discovery over Patreon.
- notatoad 5y agotwitter blue launched in the US on november 9. i think it's a little early to call it DOA. super-follows launched widely around the same time, after being in private beta since september. at least in my anecdotal experience, i see quite a few high-profile twitter personalities have enabled it - no idea how many people are actually paying them though.
