X, formerly Twitter, under new ownership by Elon Musk, is set to start charging fees from new users as the platform struggles with declining user engagement and increasing bugginess, leading to a drop in usage by nearly a quarter.
Community Notes, initially known as Birdwatch under previous ownership, was designed to combat misinformation by contributors from diverse ideologies. After Musk rebranded it and reduced moderation, it overshadowed Twitter's moderation efforts, causing controversies.
Twitter's decline led to the only enjoyable activity for new users being watching Community Notes criticizing bad posts, as the platform lost its previous charm of being a versatile 'Everything App' for news, humor, networking, and interactions with celebrities.
X's struggles with extremism, bugginess, and declining user numbers compounded by Musk's ownership have eroded the platform's appeal, making potential new users wary of paying fees for an experience that pales in comparison to its previous glory days.
