Twitter will soon add the ability to attach long text to tweets, wrote the new owner of the social network, billionaire Elon Musk.
So he intends to "do away with absurd screenshots from notes."
On October 28, Musk officially bought the social network and immediately began large-scale innovations. Bloomberg reported that Musk is going to first of all remove the option of "lifetime" blocking of accounts. Already banned users will most likely be able to recover their accounts.
Musk also announced that verification on Twitter (blue checkmark) would cost $8, despite objections from users: "To everyone who complains: please keep complaining, but it will cost $8." After the first report of this, American writer Stephen King said that in this case he would leave Twitter. Musk responded that Twitter needed "somehow to pay the bills" and that the company couldn't rely entirely on advertisers.
In addition, the businessman plans to lay off about 3,700 employees of the company – this is half of the staff.
