No thanx
Let me guess, the two new tiers are:
White Christian Nationalist Seditionist Traitor,
and,
False Flag Fuckwit
So, when we include the eventual mobile prices too and we're looking at a pricing scheme that's roughly:
$1 $2 $3 $5 $8 $11 $16 $21
Might as well just have the pricing tiers be a fibonacci sequence at that point.
I'm surprised they don't have a plan priced at $14, which can also be bought at a discount for $88/yr. You know, for their most wanted customers.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Oct 27 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, rolled out two new subscription plans on Friday, including a Premium+ tier for users willing to pay for an ad-free experience.
The Premium+ plan, priced at about $16 per month, includes all the tools and features offered by the platform, minus the ads, the company said in a post on the platform.
It will, however, be available for users accessing the platform through a web browser for now, it added.
The basic tier is priced at $3 per month but is not ad-free.
X is also planning to bundle video and audio calling for some users, in a push to turn the platform into an everything app.
Musk has been exploring several options to extensively monetize the social media platform, which he acquired for $44 billion in October 2022.
The original article contains 155 words, the summary contains 143 words. Saved 8%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Elon: "Don't go yet!, I cN still try to trick you a little more!" Me; Don't call me again. We're done."
Yeah, y’all know what they say about a fool and his money.
I do but when that term was coined they never thought an idiot would make that much money. "Soon" was never intended to have to burn through billions of dollars
Why did you feel the need to post this?
Cool, but I'd rather quit technology.
