TL;DR Summary

Elon Musk announced that social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, will soon introduce two tiers of premium subscriptions. One tier will offer all features at a lower cost but with ads, while the other tier will be more expensive but ad-free. Musk aims to increase revenue by charging users and attracting advertisers back to the platform. X recently conducted a test case in New Zealand and the Philippines, where new users who didn't subscribe were limited to "read only" actions. The platform's subscription method, called "Not A Bot," aims to reduce spam and bot activity. Other tech companies, like YouTube and Netflix, have also experimented with ad-supported and subscription plans. X did not disclose if content creators will be paid in the ad-free subscription models.
