You'd have to be a really...curious person to waste money on something like this. Then again, I don't play freemium games either so I'm clearly not the type of person who would pay for this.

The people who pay for this are the people who use these platforms for their jobs. And even then, only the big ones. I think the last stats I saw on twitter blue was like 0.2% of account holders. Nearly a rounding error.

  How many accounts are active? I'm going to go on Twitter right now while writing this comment and find you a Blue user with less than 100 followers too. https://twitter.com/RaX369 https://twitter.com/RaX369

    That looks like a bot account if you ask me. It does not post, and replies only to news articles and elon musk. Plus a comment about Israel Palestine.

      Not to mention it has 60K likes and a fake link.

      I guess I tried. Unsubstantiated claims will win again because there's no number of profiles I could link to prove nickthegreek wrong.

        To prove nickthegreek wrong you would need to show a number meaningfully higher than 0.2% of accounts.

        No to prove nickthegreek wrong I'd have to have a list of Twitter Blue users that are not using their subscription to benefit their jobs that is longer than the list of Twitter Blue users that are. But how would I know that? How would I know which people are benefiting? How do we know they are breaking even? It's not worth it; I'm giving up.
