Is it Twitter Blue or legacy? Elon Musk changed the description of verified accounts and LOL

So I was reading this article about Twitter and Elon Musk, and let me tell you, it caught my attention right away. Basically, Elon Musk changed the description of verified accounts on Twitter and it’s caused quite the stir.

From what I gathered, there’s this thing called Twitter Blue that’s like a premium version of Twitter. Well, Elon Musk changed the description of verified accounts to include the phrase “Twitter Blue tick,” which made people wonder if it meant that the feature was only available to subscribed users. But apparently, it’s just a legacy term that was already used in Twitter’s code.

I found it kind of funny because Elon Musk seems to have this ability to make even the most innocuous changes on social media into big news. But at the same time, it’s interesting to see how these little things can have such a big impact on how people perceive a platform.

From my own experience, I know that getting verified on Twitter is a big deal for some people. It’s seen as a way to build credibility and gain followers. But at the end of the day, it’s just a tiny blue checkmark next to your name.

Overall, I think the article highlights how even the most mundane aspects of social media can become significant, especially when people like Elon Musk are involved. It’s a reminder that we should be mindful of how we use social media and not get too caught up in the little things.
