I agree that he’d actually make money from tiers. It’s not a wealth signifier to this people though, it’s a group/tribe signifier. They don’t think wealth is inherently good (see: their views on the WEF lot).

If he guaranteed a response to at least one tweet a month people would pay a ridiculous sum. The most common responses would be “Interesting”, “Looking into it”, “😂” Edit: MrQwerty posted:they absolutely see Twitter Blue as a wealth signifier They see $96 a year as a wealth signifier? Do they argue that the people who aren’t paying for it are too poor, rather than too woke? Halisnacks fucked around with this message at 06:51 on May 15, 2023 |

Since all the leftists have already left Twitter, algo replies priority is useless.

They just need to go to the top of any replies, and people will happily pay. That's the only real selling point of blue, if black or platinum or whatever prioritizes views above blue the same people will buy it.

I'd buy Twitter platinum, just so I could tell Elon to go gently caress himself to his face, then do a charge back on my card when he bans me for asking if Grimes made his rocket explode prematurely.

Since his goals seem to be “make as much money as possible” and “make the service as horrible as possible”, he should definitely go all in on a whale-dependent model and introduce micro-transactions somehow.

The people buying it are already obsessed with it as the dumbest loving wealth signifier There's a finite number of tiers, which means you're leaving money on the table. Charge $8 per tick and let people buy as many as they want. Obviously someone with 17 checkmarks gets prioritised above someone with only 11.

Anyone who wants to get a check mark of any colour submits their financial records to Twitter, who then check the maximum they can afford per month, add $20 to that, then rank all posters based on how much money they’ve given Elon.

That's the only real selling point of blue, if black or platinum or whatever prioritizes views above blue the same people will buy it. This would be hilarious. First replies below an elmo tweet are the gold ticks, then black, then grey, then yellow, then green, then blue, and below that, the actually useful replies. And yes, paying a variable amount for priority smells incredibly like the average dumb libertarian bitcoin blockchain fantasy. 🤣🤣🤣

Elon can do all these things, and even more ridiculous ones, and those weird sycophants will gladly throw their money at him. The fact that he's not doing any of this shows what a terrible businessman he actually is, these people are the easiest marks in the world to get money from because they desperately want to be grifted. It makes them feel important and special. Elon could literally just create Twitter Air, a $69,- a month service that does nothing except cost $69.- a month, and people will sign up for it because they're very, very dumb. He's leaving so much money on the table

Monthly Twitter "Supporter packs" that award unique and shiny "trophies" for every month at different tiers (Up to $10,000 because why not) as well as a user "trophy cabinet" where the user can display all of their "trophies" they get from their supporter packs, as well as having one of their choice to appear next to their checkmark to brag about how much money they burned on stupid poo poo. Then just let the e-peen measuring contest and FOMO do its thing. It works exceedingly well for useless poo poo in video games, and chuds are even more gullible than gamers.

The EU's been, thankfully, catching on to that one. It's why service games are all shifting to a Battlepass model instead of perpetual random lootboxes.
