Twitter’s current lords & peasants system for who has or doesn’t have a blue checkmark is bullshit.

One of the biggest changes being made to Twitter is the verification process.
Twitter’s “blue check” has long been the mark of a trustworthy source on the platform.
“Twitter’s current lords & peasants system for who has or doesn’t have a blue checkmark is bullshit. Power to the people! Blue for $8/month,” Musk tweeted on Nov. 1.
The decision to allow users to pay for a blue check mark would affect about 400,000 verified accounts on Twitter.
CEO and co-founder of crypto exchange Binance, Changpeng Zhao, supported the idea, telling Web Summit in Lisbon, “We are supportive of that. We think that’s a great idea.”

Last week, Musk took to Twitter with another poll to decide a long-term debate among social media users.
Should Twitter bring back Vine?
Vine was an American short-form video hosting service where users could upload six-second long looping video clips.
Twitter acquired Vine in 2012 and ended its operations four years later in 2016.
In the poll of nearly 5 million Twitter users, 69.6 percent of respondents voted to bring back the Vine app. Meanwhile, only 30.4 percent of respondents voted no.
Following the poll results, Musk instructed Twitter engineers to work on a reboot of the Vine app that could be ready by the end of the year, according to Axios.
