@Meaningness @St_Rev yeah, 5 million over 3 months... there's twitter viral tweet style of short, direct, memorable, & lacking nuance so ppl will defend both sides of whatever the topic... i did it when i first paid for blue in August, gamification & stats are fun sigh, but it didn't bring me quality engagement & friends, just a lot of noise & ego... see how quickly the numbers dropped off when i decided to go back to former style! it is curious how little correlation there is between # of followers vs payouts- all about tickling the algo so it keeps putting your tweet in front of more eyes... i hope elon & co really do keep experimenting to create more positive engagement & dampen the outrage
