Elon Musk is planning to charge new X users a small fee to enable posting on the social network and to curb the bot problem.
Earlier this month, X said that the platform was starting a major purge of spam accounts, warning users that their follower count might be affected.
However, with a plan to charge new users, the social media company seemingly aims to tackle the bot problem better.
Earlier this month, xAI made its Grok chatbot available to Premium users of X, who pay $8 per month.
Last week, Fortune reported that X plans to make Grok available to users to compose posts.
Weeks before the national elections in India, Elon Musk-owned X said it is rolling out support for posting Community Notes — the company’s crowd-sourced fact-checking program — in the key overseas market.
The first set of contributors from India will start posting notes from today and more will be accepted over time, X said.
Community Notes now active on India!
Over time, the company has allowed members from different countries to start posting Community Notes to provide local context better.
India was one of the last major markets where Community Notes had not previously expanded.
When you sign up to a new social network, you have zero friend, zero follower, zero like.
A new app called Palmsy is trying to act as social media methadone by letting you post anything and getting likes on them.
While the app is reading your contact details, because all posts are local, contact information is not sent to a server.
There have been multiple time-limiting apps that try to help when it comes to reducing social media addiction.
Some developers have also released very basic apps to post dumb posts without consequences as well.
