| News organizations have a message for Elon Musk: We are not going to pay you for checkmarks on Twitter.
The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, BuzzFeed, POLITICO, and Vox all scoffed at the notion on Thursday that they would pay Twitter for the feature, which has been free since it was introduced years ago but will soon be phased out.
CNN said it has no intention of paying for Twitter’s subscription service for its accounts but would make a few exceptions for some key staff.
“As of right now, we do not plan to pay for Twitter Blue subscriptions for either our brand or individual accounts, except for a small number of select teams who need this verification as an essential part of newsgathering and reporting,” said Athan Stephanopoulos, CNN’s chief digital officer, in a staff memo Friday. | |
| The Los Angeles Times told staffers that Twitter is “not as reliable as it once was” and that it will “not be paying to verify our organization” on Twitter. | |

Falls viele namhafte Content Creator sich keine blauen Haken holen und demnach bald nicht mehr im "For You"-Feed zu finden sein werden, sinkt auch der Anreiz für die Allgemeinheit, den "For You"-Feed überhaupt noch zu benutzen.
Wozu noch auf den Feed gehen, der dir eh nicht mehr die Leute zeigt, die du lesen willst, sondern nur noch Schrott-Content (Elon informiert / Reps/Dems sucken, amirite? You won't believe what Boebert/AOC said next / "Meinungen" von russischen Bots mit blauem Haken)...

| Twitter revealed its algorithm to the world.
But what does it mean for you?
I spent the evening analyzing it.
Here’s what you need to know:
1. Likes, then retweets, then replies
Here’s the ranking parameters:
• Each like gets a 30x boost
• Each retweet a 20x
• Each reply only 1x
It’s much more impactful to earn likes and retweets than replies.
2. Images & videos help
Both images and videos lead to a nice 2x boost.
3. Links hurt, unless you have enough engagement
Generally external links get you marked as spam.
Unless you have enough engagement.
4. Mutes & unfollows hurt
All of the following hurt your engagement:
• Mutes
• Blocks
• Unfollows
• Spam reports
• Abuse reports
5. Blue extends reach
Paying the monthly fee gets you a healthy boost.
6. Misinformation is highly down-ranked
Anything that is categorized as misinformation gets the rug pulled out from under it.
Surprisingly, so are posts about Ukraine.
... [Thread] ...
9. Making up words or misspelling hurts
Words that are identified as “unknown language” are given 0.01, which is a huge penalty.
Anything under 1 is bad.
This is really bad.

Analysis of Twitter algorithm code reveals social medium down-ranks tweets about Ukraine | Yahoo

| Good morning! If you think your life sucks, spare a thought for Elon Musk, who joined a Twitter Spaces discussion last night and asked his fans if anybody would be willing to work for free as a Twitter engineer as they need help. | |

| Someone at Twitter is trying to delete data from from a git repository
Please pass the popcorn
| | | @thomasfuchs: I've got a diff. There appears to be little interesting there; curiously, somebody has been systematically removing usernames of people whom Melon presumedly fired. But there are some functional changes, such as stripping out the author_is_elon and author_is_republican business. | |

| [Thread:]
The reason the Twitter Media team existed was because *almost all* of the engagement on Twitter happens with tweets from high profile people/organizations across government, sports, music, business, news, whatever the Kardashians are, etc. They’re the lifeblood of the platform.
We verified those people so that any user could know they were interacting with a real account; part of the fun of twitter is the real time dialogue with thought leaders (that then flows to others in the replies who get to share their thoughts and ideas).
There were a bunch of important safety and security reasons for doing this as well. Hero tweeps like @KatieS and @Larakate have all the scars/stories to prove it.
It was also possible to organically build a verifiable account by gaining followers and impact on the platform. There can be some debate over whether Twitter thrived on giving many non-verified users false hope that they were doing anything other than shouting into the void; regardless, it was (and is) the case that verified users are what drive engagement.
Now, surely there are verified users today who don’t deserve it. They craved the status symbol and found a way to worm their way in. The percentage is low, and the impact to the platform negligible. Any designation like this is by definition subject to human judgement.
But again, the Media Team spent all their time and resources supporting the people who - and the data undeniably proved this - support the platform. We knew where our bread was buttered. Twitter didn’t exist without these creators sending tweets. Now…
There were times where certain high profile people actually asked to be paid to join Twitter. There was some internal discussion about this over the course of the company’s history. But the decision was always to hold the line and hope the network effects would win. They did.
But what Twitter is going to start doing tonight flips the equation - it is going to ask its most important creators to *pay Twitter* instead of the other way around. Every other social media platform has found a way to pay its creators, not charge them. Will it work?
Every day that goes by validates Zuck’s famous “clown car crashed into a gold mine” description of Twitter. While it looks like a criticism on the surface, it is in fact praise for the underlying resilience and perseverance of Twitter. As Zuck discovered, it’s hard to kill.
Tonight is another test of that resilience. While a lot of web3 stuff has proven nonsense, the underlying principle that creators should have ownership in the consumer facing platforms that their content powers is still a vibrant idea, one most creators passionately believe.
This is the first major opportunity for creators, as a whole, to flex their muscle and reclaim power in the web3 age (if that’s a thing 🤷♂️ ). If most OG blue checks stop tweeting in protest of being asked to pay to create the content that Twitter lives by…Twitter dies.
The likely sequencing will be like LeBron: first, give up the check and not pay. But as the experience degrades and impersonation abounds, creators will start to wonder why they’d contribute content to a platform and company that holds them in such contempt.
That will be the point at which we might expect a wave of silence to ensue. The first real staring contest of the creator economy is upon us. Will creators seize the moment? Can Twitter sustain it? 🍿

| The whole blue check mess over at Twitter is getting funnier than I ever could’ve imagined.
To summarize for those who missed it: instead of taking away the blue checks from the legacy accounts, Musk has added a message that suggests that they might be legacy or they might be paying. This deliberate obstruction of information that was there yesterday is as pathetic as it is transparent.

Twitter strikes New York Times’ verified badge on Elon Musk’s orders | WaPo
| Musk had said old checkmarks would disappear as of yesterday but @nytimes is one of the very few affected so far, possibly because the badges have to be removed one by one.
Since Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion, its ad revenue has plunged 90% | |
At Elon Musk's Twitter, speech is anything but free | Axios
| A series of changes at Twitter has laid bare what the service has become under Elon Musk: a place where speech is anything but free.
What's happening: From its shift to pay-for-play to impulsive policy changes made by Musk, the site more resembles an intrigue-filled palace than the town square that Musk says he seeks to protect.
...
Although most previously verified accounts have yet to lose the mark, the system has already begun to break down, with many celebrities and news organizations vowing not to pay.
Among those who have said they won't pay are celebrities such as LeBron James and news organizations including The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times. The White House is also not willing to pay, as Sara Fischer first reported on Friday.
The New York Times apparently lost its check mark after saying it wouldn't pay, per the Washington Post.
In general, removing legacy verifications may take Twitter a while, as insiders say removing them is a manual process — no one planned for a need for mass deletion.
...
Separate from the algorithm, many users noted that there are a series of words that Twitter seems to want people not to use.
If you use the words "trans" or "transgender" in a tweet, for example, the message won't preview if you share it via direct message on Twitter. ... Other terms said to be on the list are "bisexual," "gay," "lesbian" and "queer."
...
Between the lines: A number of soon-to-be-unverified users decided to go out with a bang, changing their display name and image to impersonate someone else.
Lawfare blogger Ben Wittes turned his account into "Russian Embassy on Twitter" and started posting pro-Ukraine content, while others pretended to be everyone from Ted Cruz to J.K. Rowling apologizing for past actions.
