There’s an “undo” button!
Oh, good: Twitter wants us to give it money now. A long-teased subscription plan, Twitter Blue, launched on Tuesday, with a short list of exclusive features in exchange for $2.99 a month. Among them are the options to … change your app icon color , update your theme , and organize your bookmarks, should you actually use your Twitter bookmarks.
If those sound not quite worth it, some of Twitter Blue’s functions may be slightly more enticing. The main events are the option to undo a tweet and a new way to read threads and articles. Undoing a tweet is basically like deleting one, except the tweet doesn’t send first; you hit tweet, and a loading circle appears to give you 20 seconds to reconsider that shitpost .
Then there are the lesser benefits. While Twitter Blue won’t remove ads from your feed, it will give you some news articles ad-free. Twitter has partnered with some outlets to offer ad-free reading experiences within the app,. This experience is reminiscent of Facebook’s infamous Instant Articles, stories that can be read natively through Facebook’s app.
