Elon Musk says Twitter will be subscription-only and it’s gone down as well as you’d expect

The good ship formerly known as Twitter – and, according to a recent poll, still known as Twitter by the majority of its users – may be about to hit another strategically placed Muskberg in the form of a payment-only system.

To labour the Titanic analogy, it’s a dangerous manoeuvre when Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon and even the old faithfuls, Instagram and Facebook, are all lifeboats in the frozen waters.

It looks like Musk’s plan may stretch users’ loyalty too far – for these people, certainly.
