So fucking happy I deleted twitter. At this point it's just a horse race to see which site dies faster reddit or twitter.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

X, the social network formally known as Twitter, appears to be finally following through on its promise to make TweetDeck a paid service.

Many users on X, including social media consultant Matt Navarra, say that they’re seeing a sales page for X Premium (the subscription formerly Twitter Blue) when they try to load up TweetDeck, which is technically now called XPro.

A few of us at The Verge haven’t run into the block yet, but given how many people are saying that they can’t access XPro unless they pay, we’re guessing it’s only a matter of time.

It said at the time that the transition would happen “in 30 days,” so the company missed its own deadline by just a bit.

Under owner Elon Musk, X has tried to make X Premium a more enticing subscription with additions like longer posts, formatting, ad revenue sharing, and higher rankings in conversations and search — now, the company is hoping that access to XPro is worth paying for a blue checkmark.

TweetDeck was one of the most popular third party apps for accessing Twitter until the company acquired it in 2011.

I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I wish news outlets would just refuse to call it X and continue to call it Twitter. They're giving the stupid idea legitimacy and Musk doesn't need or deserve that.

Too bad (for them) the newer version of Tweetdeck was ✨worse✨ than the old one.

XPro? Surprised its not xDeck.

In fact, I won't be surprised if there's squatters right now buying all the domains like x"word"

xDeck.. surely
