This is the best summary I could come up with:
Elon Musk-owned X, formerly Twitter, is now rolling out a feature for paid users to let them hide their likes.
This comes after rival social networks Threads and Bluesky rolled out the ability for users to see their own likes in the past few weeks.
Paid users on X now have a setting under profile customization that lets them hide the likes tab.
But Musk has added another incentive to the paid tier that allows users to like posts without worrying about others looking at them.
Earlier this month, X started allowing subscribers to hide their verification checkmark, probably so they can avoid this meme.
However, if a user decides to hide their likes tab, they are giving away the fact that they paid for the subscription anyway.
