Ah, so now people will be incentivized to spam more bombastic and extreme content to more and more fanatic groups, brilliant.
-
As ads revenue is crashing, they want to be able to rely on something less easy to quantify in order to modulate it. Previously they had to pay x cents per click, now they can just divide the little they earn arbitrarily in order to keep in the green.

Anyone advertising there should go fuck themselves.
-
Engagement from other premium users* so that Twitter influencers have incentive to sell premium. It does sound like beginning of a pyramid scheme.
-
Elon's fuckery of 'The platform formely known as Twitter' is the gift that keeps giving.
Here's my suggestion for a new company motto:
"X: It's Twitter but it's Shitter."
-
Sure keeps on giving. Reminds me of the time when Trump was President.

Listen, we have "engagement", why not call this type of of content "enragement"?
-
Do advertisers even engage with that shit platform anymore?
-
Unilever certainly does, so fuck them.

Funnily enough that's exactly what many full time microbloggers have been asking from Xitter for years. I always thought it was a silly idea and if you want to make money from your tweets print and sell them as a book like any other self-important celebrity or become a ghost writer for other people's Xitty microblogs. If you're that good, people will pay, surely.

People made careers out of tweeting?
I had no idea that was possible.
-
-
Not sure why people even bother with that site anymore.
-
I'm sure that will go well. Definitely won't increase the amount of prank bullshit going on.
-
Nobody gives a 💩💩💩!
-
I do give a shit, and at this point I want to see that platform taken down for good. Because otherwise it's a platform for nefarious shit and abuse. And no one needs that. Especially not the gullible.
-
That's a good way to give a 💩💩💩!
