Twitter says ‘prioritized rankings in conversations’ are now part of the package of perks for paying Twitter Blue subscribers. Elon Musk says the feature will reduce spam, but some worry it could allow bad actors a way to pay-to-play.
) says these priority replies are now in effect, though it doesn’t reference priority in search or mentions. The company doesn’t offer detail on how the feature works, saying only: “This feature prioritizes your replies on Tweets that you interact with.”
Presumably, though, it mean that when ordering replies to a Tweet, Twitter will now weight whether or not the user pays for Blue alongside other apparent factors like the time the tweet was posted and its popularity. Earlier this month,the feature was intended to “lower the visibility of scams, spam and bots,” though some have worried that paying for priority might also give bad actors an easy way to boost their messages.
In addition to prioritized replies, Twitter Blue subscribers can now upload videos up to 60 minutes long, 2GB in size, and 1080p resolution. This feature is only available via the web, andthat it may have to modify “the resolution and bitrate of the original video while streaming based on the speed and stability of the viewer’s internet connection.
