This is beyond speedrunning enshittification now...

I'm eager to see what twitter users think of this - lots of people are watching, and corpos taking notes.

Edit: He's announced an increased limit but it's hardly generous IMO.

Spoiler ImageImage of Twitter post where Elon Musk announces a rate limit increase to 8000 for verified users, 800 for unverified users, and 400 for new unverified users

I think this really will be the straw that broke the camels back for a lot of people. I don't think it will immediately kill twitter but it will have a lasting effect. And if not this I am sure he will come up with an even worse policy change within the next 2 months. Something like limiting it to only 10 tweets per day for unverified users.

Everyone in the world who uses Twitter to broadcast news to the masses now can’t. Every news org, company, and politician now has dramatically reduced incentive to post on Twitter.

Much more importantly, advertisers and marketers have less incentive to invest time and money in the platform if people are being rate limited and forced to make accounts just to see the ads.

Shows how much planning he does to change his mind in two hours flat.

Where's the rate limit now? Or has he increased it again in the last 30 min?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Most recent tweet from Elon says 10k for verified, 1k for unverified, and 500 for new unverified.
