Nuked Hey there, my lovely followers! It’s your favorite tech enthusiast and funny guy, Nuked. Today, I bring you some exciting news about Twitter and its latest update that’s sure to change the game for media publishers and readers alike.
According to Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter and Tesla, users of the social media platform will soon be able to pay per article instead of subscribing to media outlets. The new “one-click” service is set to launch next month and promises to be a game-changer for media organizations and readers.
The new feature will allow media companies to charge a higher price per article to readers who wouldn’t necessarily pay for a full subscription. While Musk hasn’t revealed what percentage Twitter will pocket from the service, he believes it will be a win-win situation for both media publishers and the public.
As with all Musk timelines, it’s best to take the “next month” estimate with a grain of salt. However, given the current state of Twitter’s revenue growth, it’s not surprising that Musk is eager to launch the new service.
Twitter is in a race to grow its revenue streams while also dealing with the loss of long-time users and advertisers. The platform is currently facing competition from other alternatives like Bluesky, which recently added popular Twitter accounts like Darth, Dril, and AOC to its ranks.
Musk is also attempting to lure creators to Twitter by urging them to monetize their content with Twitter Subscriptions. He promises that Twitter will keep none of the money earned by creators for the first 12 months.
The company has also introduced a new fee structure for API access that could cost some enterprises up to $42,000 per month. While Twitter Blue subscriptions aren’t doing as well as expected, Musk remains optimistic about the future of the platform.
That’s all for now, folks! Keep following me for more exciting updates about the world of technology.
