Social media platforms typically want you to spend all of your time on them so they can discover more about your interests and utilize that information to offer you relevant adverts and so generate money. The first social media platform to put a daily limit on the number of posts you may view before being locked out is now Twitter, on the other hand.
Twitter’s creator and former CEO, Elon Musk, said that the platform will temporarily impose restrictions on how many postings users may view each day. Twitter is reportedly taking this action in response to “extreme levels” of data scraping and “system manipulation.”
Twitter Limits the Amount of Posts Users Can View Daily:
The verified accounts are initially restricted to reading 6,000 posts per day, the unverified accounts to 600 posts per day, and the newly created unverified accounts to 300 posts per day. The notification is ambiguous about the distinction between an “unverified account” and a “new unverified account.”
Musk raised the cap a short while later to 10,000, 1,000, and 500 postings daily, respectively.
Additionally, Elon Musk retweeted a self-parody account that called Twitter users “Twitter addicts” and said that Elon was performing a “good deed for the world.”
These developments follow Twitter’s recent ban on non-registered users viewing tweets on the social media platform. Since Musk took over Twitter in 2022, the organization has laid off over 80% of its staff.
A “Rate limit exceeded” message started to surface among many Twitter users. The user’s timeline would become frozen and stop displaying new tweets due to this problem. Furthermore, it frustrated them by telling them to “stand by a short time, then, at that point, attempt once more.”
Additionally, there is no indication of how much of your tweet allotment has already been consumed. In addition, it’s not obvious whether viewing the same tweet twice will reduce your allotment once or twice. Â There are a lot of unanswered inquiries, and we trust Musk will rapidly address them all.
