I would sooner chew on glass than pay for Twitter.

Hell. No.

Hell no, and that's why I love the idea and definitely encourage them to do so.

He went from saying he was going to build an 'everything app' to charging for something that does nothing and is shit at it.

The correct answer is no.

As I understand, even when paying you would still see ads and not get any benefits over what Twitter is at the moment whatsoever. I honestly cannot imagine the platform retaining many users after such a drastic step.

$0.

Twitter like so many other social media companies came into being with users as the product. As that fails (both because Elon is an idiot and because consumer knowledge has improved), these companies are finding that they never really had a sustainable business model.

Let the market work it out, as the overlords are so fond of.

Oh god, please do this.

You couldn't even pay me to use Twitter

I would pay to not use it.

Looking forward to the influx of users to Bluesky and Mastodon, keep it up lemonsuk

I'd happily pay a monthly fee for twitter to stop existing

no I'm not willing to play for using twitter, I'll just delete my account.

as for the "it's the only way to combat the army of bots" comment - how is that the army of bots only became a problem after twitter became x? i never had a problem before but now my every tweet is liked by a kinsley, madeline, josephine, mia or layla. it's crazy.

oh, maybe that's one of the microservices they shut down

Sorry Jovan Musk, from Calvin Klein! The answer is nooooOOOOOoooo. Old Twitter is dead. You killed it, and now you're trying to sell me its smelly corpse.

Maybe I will finally go delete my old account.

I left already. I'm certainly not paying to use something so terrible

I won’t even use it for free, so paying seems unlikely.

Nah, I'll definitely get that latte instead.

I’ll just leave these here

Hell nar we got mastadon

I've never used it. This doesn't make me want to start
