Elon Musk has set a limit on the number of tweets users can read each day. Musk announced the new program Saturday as thousands of users reported problems attempting to access the site. In a tweet …

In a fantastic example of yet further self-implosion by Twitter, Elon Musk has announced a "temporary" limit on the number of posts users can view per day.

Unpaid users can now only view 600 posts per day, before being hit by rate limits. New unpaid users can now only view 300 posts per day.

Paid users are able to view 6000 views per day.

Ah well, at least he's sorted out doom scrolling 👍!

So how much you wana bet that this “temporary” restriction becomes a permanent way to push people to buy twitter blue?

Highly likely. I suppose it'd add something actually worth having to the subscription because goodness knows none of the other features are worth it ha!

What I find hilarious is that Twitter is adding paid features that only go halfway - paid twitter shows less, but not no ads, and now it shows more, but not infinite, content.

Where Musk goes, apparently so will everyone else, so it’s just a matter of time before Reddit does it too
