Twitter unverified accounts now have a daily limit of 50 posts per day

[TaylorSwift 162,284]

The current technical limits for accounts are:

Direct Messages (daily): The limit is 500 messages sent per day.

Posts: 50 original posts and 200 replies per day for unverified accounts. The daily update limit is further broken down into smaller limits for semi-hourly intervals.

Changes to account email: 4 per hour.

Following (daily): The technical follow limit is 400 per day. Please note that this is a technical account limit only, and there are additional rules prohibiting aggressive following behavior. 

Following (account-based): Once an account is following 5,000 other accounts, additional follow attempts are limited by account-specific ratios. 

These limits include actions from all devices, including web, mobile, phone, API, etc. API requests from all third-party applications are tracked against the hourly API limit. People who use multiple third-party applications with their account will therefore reach the API limit more quickly. 

These limits may be temporarily reduced during periods of heavy site usage. In such cases, we will post an update on the X status site.
 

What happens if I hit a limit?

If you do reach a limit, we'll let you know with an error message telling you which limit you've hit. For limits that are time-based (like the Direct Messages, posts, changes to account email, and API request limits), you'll be able to try again after the time limit has elapsed.

The post limit of 2,400 updates per day is further broken down into semi-hourly intervals. If you hit your account update/post limit, please try again in a few hours after the limit period has elapsed. x

Death of twitter was such a loss for the internet, especially since BlueSky hasn't really become the replacement

GP, celebrities and the people who complained about twitter and elon will still use it, so it’s kind of useless to waste energy and anger on it lol

elon proved that he can do anything and say anything and everyone will keep on using his twittet..

Yeah. Both BlueSky and Threads combined haven't been able to totally replace Twitter. They still thankfully have some success though (especially BlueSky given that it isn't attached to Mark Zuckerberg.)

Nah they’re just slowly trying to make it a paid for service for sure. I mean already verified accounts that pay money get priority for visibility

Also every verified account is now monetised that’s why engagement and rage bait are massive on the platform now
