Official data reveals that, at present, Twitter has more than 400 million active users worldwide.
It was recently revealed that having a verified account on Twitter could cost $8.
After the controversy was on the side of Twitter this week, good news has arrived, as the social network will launch one of its most anticipated features totally free.
For some time now, the platform has been determined to add users to its portfolio, which is why it is constantly being updated in many of its functions, thus granting different experiences to users.
From this perspective, and as part of its expansion, the so-called “little bird social network” apparently has several new functions ready, which it has been launching little by little, as is the case with its “edit button”, the which, even, announced months ago, but it is only now that it will begin to test it.
Through In a statement, the social network announced that this function, at the moment, is in its testing phase and basically what it is about is a new button that will allow users to modify their tweets once they have been published.
In other words, it is like what is done on Facebook when, for some reason, users decide to modify their posts; however, in the case of twitter, Internet users will have only 30 minutes to modify, correct or completely change their tweets.
Edited Tweets will appear with an icon, timestamp, and label so readers can clearly see that the original Tweet has been edited.
As we mentioned at the beginning, the last few days the controversy has accompanied Twitter after the tycoon Elon Musk finally made the final purchase of the social network.
And it is that, one of the movements that has caused the most annoyance is the fact that, as has been said, users who wish to have their account verified will have to pay at least 8 dollars, a situation that many do not like. liked it
In addition, recent news speaks that a large number of the current Twitter staff will be without their jobs. So, in other words, it’s not the best time for Twitter.
However, good news seems to have arrived for the more than 400 million users who are currently attached to the platform, since the edit button that was announced some time ago will be free, contrary to what had been reported.
Of course, this is not yet 100 percent confirmed, but everything indicates that users would no longer have to pay to use said button.
Will this change the image of Twitter? It sounds complicated, because the decisions that are being made are being severely criticized by Internet users.
