Chris A TyeOver on Elon’s app, they’ve just introduced an option to hide the blue tick on the paid-for subscription.

Francis ☑️The other place has got *really* blue-ticky. By that I mean twitter shows me replies from 8 blue tick anti-vaxxers rather than replies from people I might want to engage with.
