I don't really grasp the value proposition here. I can have "Priority in replies, mentions & search, which is essential to defeat spam/scam", but is that valuable to me or to my audience? If I'm a regular no-name user, do I care if I'm lost in replies and search? And if I'm the Steven Kings of the world, that other users want to see content from, does it do more harm to me or to Twitter if my posts are hidden because I'm not paying $8 a month?
It feels like I'm being asked to pay $8 to solve a problem that belongs to Twitter (too many bots), not a problem that belongs to me.
- mymythisisthis 4y agoFor people like Steven King, if he posts something on Facebook his fans will re-post it on Twitter, and vice-versa. If too many things trend on other platforms, but not on Twitter, people will leave Twitter because it is not keeping up.
- jjfoooo5 4y agoIt's a great point. There have been several replies ITT along the lines of, "if Twitter goes away, what platform will Stephen King post his content?" As you point out, the answer is "all of the relevant ones, with very little effort on his part"
