Today twitter rolled-off their new subscription-based service in Australia and Cananda called Twitter Blue for the monthly price of $3.49 CAD or $4.49 AUD. It includes the following perks:

Bookmark Folders let you organize the Tweets you’ve saved by letting you manage content so when you need it, you can find it easily and efficiently.

2.Undo Tweets: -

Your thoughts?

They should have sold the company few years ago.

I only use Twitter to see what Elon Musk says, he's pretty funny sometimes. That's about it.

[Spotty]

That just seems like 'features' they should have had a long time ago. No mention of removing ads? 

I can't imagine anyone paying $4.50 per month to be able to view a tweet before you post it or being able to bookmark a tweet (something any browser can already do).

So... making you pay monthly for quality of life improvements that should have been added a long time ago? Inb4 the service fails miserably and they roll out these features to everyone.

Yeah, these aren’t worth any amount of money, even for a regular user like myself

[Deflowerer]

All of these features could be implemented for free with a 3rd party extension, not to mention the removal of ads which this doesn't include. I hope no one on here falls for this scam.
