Musk tweeted. "Only verified users count, as it is otherwise trivial to game the system with bots."

So how's that plan to get rid of all the bot accounts coming along?

Now he’s going to pay the bots! 🤣

At least 5 mil tweets per month, lol 🤣🤣🤣.

Tweet impressions. Still pretty high though.

Those are like upvotes/likes?

[-] TacoEvent@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 years ago

Views basically. The number of times your tweet gets shown in someone’s feed.

They want to keep the top content creators from considering threads. Threads is a real threat to twitter specially with all the issues around twitter atm.

Can't believe people are signing up left and right to Threads... do they even know it's a data harvesting farm?

Most of them are either FB or IG users anyway, so their data are already being taken.
