X is testing a new subscription model called "Not A Bot" that will charge users for likes, reposts, quoting other accounts' posts, and bookmarking posts on the web version of the platform.
The purpose of the new subscription model is to combat bots and spammers, and the fee will vary from country to country based on the exchange rate.
X, formerly Twitter, will test a new subscription model that charges $1 per year for basic features. The new "Not A Bot" subscription will charge users for likes, reposts, quotes, and bookmarks on the web version of the platform. The fee will differ by country based on the exchange rate.
X says the new subscription will first be available to users in New Zealand and the Philippines. Existing users will not be affected, but new users who do not subscribe will only be able to view and read posts, watch videos, and follow accounts. Elon Musk, who acquired X last year, has been concerned about bots on the platform.
