Elon Musk wants to make a lot of big changes to his newly owned Twitter. The first step is to reduce the workforce and now he confirmed that the Twitter Blue subscription will be $8 per month compared to $4.99 per month previously.
Every Twitter Blue customer will receive a self-verified identity verification logo through the Twitter Verified cir. Although paying quite a bit more for a subscription, users will still be able to see ads in the app just halved. Another advantage of the subscription is that customers can upload longer videos and audios than just 140 seconds.
Users will also be given visibility in searches as well as replying to posts in threads. Musk also said that access to paid unblocked articles will also be given to publications that want to partner with Twitter.
Finally Musk said the price of this subscription will change according to the market because $8 may be small for customers in the United States but high for users in Malaysia which is currently around RM38.
