I think that just means Elon's a subscriber to the person he's replying to, but it's not necessarily subscriber-only content. Or at least that's what it meant the first time Twitter tried this pre-Elon

I suspected twitters sub only content wasn’t sub only by accident. You know, a normal twitter coding mishap. I’d never insult you like that, DICK!

Someone tried to explain to Elon that social networks make money by monetizing user data. Now he is paranoid that everyone is trying to steal Twitter’s data.

"I'm going to start something which I call 'TruthGPT,' or a maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe," Musk said. "And I think this might be the best path to safety, in the sense that an AI that cares about understanding the universe, it is unlikely to annihilate humans because we are an interesting part of the universe."

According to Musk's recent BBC interview, most of Twitter's advertisers have returned, though third-party data doesn't necessarily back that up: As of January Twitter's daily revenue was down by more than 40 percent, with much of that loss attributable to the departure of advertisers. Musk also claimed to the BBC that Twitter was at a break-even point, though without offering anything to suggest that's actually the case.

A look at Twitter's advertising spending as of February by Vox found that more than half of Twitter's top 1,000 advertisers have yet to return. Of Twitter's top 10 advertising partners, only six still serve ads through Twitter.

Citing data through the end of Q1, market intelligence firm Sensor Tower told The Wall Street Journal that 37 of the top 100 pre-Musk Twitter advertisers had left the platform and have yet to return. Of those top 100, 24 remaining had reduced their ad spending by some 80 percent since Musk took over.

things are going great!

also:

We contacted Twitter to get more information about Musk's talk and try to get some actual advertising numbers, and wouldn't you know it - no poop emoji this time. That's not because the company is reaching the end of its teenage years, though: We actually managed to contact an advertising VP at Twitter, and in lieu of a poop emoji we were met with silence.
