Twitter has started giving users who sign up for $8 a month a verified check mark, days after owner Elon Musk floated the idea of a new verification system.
“Power to the people,” Twitter said in the version notes for its latest update that was released Saturday. “Your account will get a blue checkmark, just like the celebrities, companies, and politicians you already follow.”
Alongside the new verification system, Twitter is promising to halve the number of ads subscribers see “soon.” Also coming are the ability to post longer videos and get priority ranking in replies, mentions and searches, the company said.
