What you just described is exactly what takes place on YouTube (and fans love it).
But I would argue with YouTube, there is a higher value proposition and an element of entertainment.
Got a tip for us?

I don’t use social media but I like this move toward actually paying for things instead of naively thinking everything should be free, which is what led to this shady tracking situation we find ourselves in. I think the model of a paid tier for heavy users and a free tier with non-tracking/non-targeted advertising for light users makes complete sense. It’s the only model that provides an easy entry level for users, pays the people doing the work, and keeps users’ privacy intact. Although I suppose an opt-in targeted advertising could be an option.
Yep twitter is reying to become rhe AAA gaming industry, look out for pre order bomus twets aand rweet dlc
Sorry to bring the bad news, but when you get the in stock tweet, the scalper bots have probably all ready got all the units, bldy scalpers!
Wouldn't paid tweets go against the idea of tweeting in the first place? I mean imo the idea of tweeting is to express your opinion to a mass public audience. If you start putting a pay wall over your own tweets, then, why?
I guess the analogy to onlyFans is correct. It's the only thing that makes sense to put behind a pay wall.

YouTube is a much longer form of information, be it entertainment or whatever.
A tweet is just a tweet. Unless of course we use the idea of OnlyFans.
Twitter is becoming toxic, Facebook alternative. I wish some guy comes up with something like the original Twitter, a micro-blog. I know about mastodon but that needs a lot of work for a final product. The only thing even close to it is gab.com which is banned by every app store out there.
The only reason people are following people is because the content is free. Who wants to pay to read to tweets by John Doe.

It takes a lot of effort to create video content like research, lightening, editing, computers...etc etc . It can also be very educational like AsapScience and CrashCourse.
