At the same time, Twitter is reportedly working on a way to hide the blue checkmark you just spent $8 on.
One can imagine Musk firing off an emoji-laden tweet mocking all of the elite possessors of legacy checkmarks for believing they’d lose their prized status symbols. But it wouldn’t be a very good April Fools’ Day prank because he’s said this move is coming for months and presumably it will come at some point. Just lying about the date is pretty weak shit.
Brands regularly use April Fools’ Day to get attention with little fibs that are vaguely humorous, like 7/11 claiming it was launching new “.” Some people fall for it, some people don’t but it’s all mostly harmless. Telling people they need to start paying a monthly fee because they’ll soon lose their method of protecting themselves from impersonation would be a different ball game.
Regardless, it comes at a time when Twitter Blue is reportedly not doing so hot, both financially and in the public eye. Twitter Blue has been the laughingstock of Twitter ever since it allowed people to pay for authentication because why the hell would anyone pay money for a basic security feature?Well, it would appear that Twitter knows that Twitter Blue is becoming a bit of a farce.
