Am I reading that right? It will cost an extra $4 to register the check mark on mobile devices compared to desktop?

Does that mean you only get the benefits on mobile if you pay the extra $ or does it mean you can pay either way but charging on mobile has a $4 convenience fee?

It covers Apple/Google tax. They didn't want to have lower revenue on mobile or go the Spotify route.

I was also surprised that you will need to verify all your accounts. If you run 3 social media accounts across Instagram or Facebook, you can buy a blue tick for each, even though you run them all from your (maybe) verified account

I can understand why they are doing this, the programming require to roll out a feature like this is minimal, so even if they barely profit from it, if at all, they didn’t spend a lot of time on doing this feature, so, expect other platforms to soon follow.

    Elon owns Twitter not Google. Not sure how you got into comparing Facebook with Google

    Google has had many successful products since AdWords & AdSense

    Had being the primary word after Google cancelled them.

    Don’t be a fanboi for an advertising company. Google is a shit company that has produced by and large garbage while letting their primary user facing products wilt on the vine over the past 4 years.

    Personally, they are the same sort of trash ever since I realise I can’t access its content from a web browser and I have to download the app with an account, so from the start.

    Until they both lose money and users measurably from these changes, they will copy one another to chase every last cent.
