Clearly their troves of user behavioral data is telling them that there is potential for successfully charging subscription fees somewhere for their services, but they are struggling to find it. All of this reminds me how Big Data Analytics has not yet been developed to its full potential. Corporations collect far more data than they know what to do with.
 
Honestly brilliant business decision with OnlyFans banning adult content. And yet another great reason for me to continue avoiding Twitter. Five years clean from Twitter!
They made a full stop and reversed the ban, blaming everything on the big banks closing their corporate account on short notice and blocking all wire transfers.

Mean while, big banks: crickets.

Who is the bad guy? Case closed.

Think about what kind of people are behind those big banks making those progressive decisions, and their true intent. This is not a political forum, I won’t go further.
 
The what? Do elaborate more on who are “useless”…
Useless is an adjective however I used it as a noun, what I meant was the [useless] “influencers”, “content creators” and so on and so forth. They’re pretty much useless parasites to me for the most part.

Simply mute or block them, simple enough. I don't see how whatever they do/can do on twitter affect you in any way if you just block them.

Or just delete and stop using twitter. I mean why would you be using a platform that are filled with "parasites"?

This is also potentially a competitor to Patreon which is used by thousands of artists. Too early to say this feature is useless.
I believe this will be great for artists as well. Competing platform is useful as many are still using twitter to tell their followers about their Patreon. :)
 
Everyone is now a beggar on the internet but they masquerade is as Patreon, Superfollower etc. The worst part of it all is most of these beggars are already well to do people. Very rich beggars

The real edge of twitter and the interactions there is the reach.

Starting to go down the road of segmenting with paywalls for some content could really limit/kill what has always been great/useful about it.

As long as they pay their taxes, why should they bother you?
