Twitter has never declared profit,it's a losing business,he has to turn it around.
Nobody invest that much and expect not to make money.
Entrepreneurs are money makers.

You ll ruin Twitter. First it was cocaine inside coke. Now it's money for tweeting.
After all your money. When you aren't urgent N2K. What ll we be getting on twitter that ll warrant payment when other tech rivals are doing free?
Is twitter better than Facebook?
Elon Musk, you yeye don dey smell.

Don't mind him. I was actually looking for a sensible comment. That is why Mark is always ahead of all of them.

Government agencies can post on their FB page for free,but I have to pay on Twitter. Even government agencies will dump the app ASAP.

Mark has made his apps all free except for targeted advert. Infact on WhatsApp you even advertise for free. Easy to use and understand That is why Whatsapp and FB are still the number 1 social media outlets in the world.

Like I told a friend years ago about WhatsApp and how it will take over the world while he said Noo,he does not like WhatsApp he prefers this blackberry messaging app have forgotten the name now. We all can see the one still in vogue till date.

Yet Mark makes bastard money year in,year out.

I am happy I am not even on Twitter. You see what will come out of it in some years time

Well, it appears Jack and Elon have different ideologies on the usage of Twitter.

My concern is, after commercials and government pay for usage, would there still be restrictions on what can be posted on twitter
Certainly!!

If you want to be rude, you can channel that to your family members.

Back to the point...
You can't tell business owners how to run their business... If you can't pay for the service rendered, you uninstall it and look for alternative(s) or better still, build your own App, shikena

No crime in that since it is mainly addressing those that uses the platform for expanding businesses but the pay must be considerate.

With or without the Nigerian government ban, twitter has always posted losses year on year except 2018 and 2019...lets learn to read devoid of emotions/politics - Read https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/can-twitter-with-losses-for-past-2-years-become-profitable-under-musk-101651049517513.html

Who are you giving your advice to? Am I the one who said Twitter was losing revenue due to the ban?

I knew it would come to this, None of elon musk services has been useful to Nigerians, PayPal, SpaceX, Boring, Tesla, Sprint, And now twitter is being monetized, Abeg Jack Dorsey should buy back twitter we were better off under Jack than this idiot ! Monetizing twitter is going to be like Netflix subscription and PayPal u can never use in nigeria, And if u think elon musk is not going to extend this pay per service to his "causal users like me and u, then u re dreaming! he has to get back $44Bn he bought it for I believe in Jack dorsey`s concept of twitter! since elon musk toke over, u can't sign in as a new user into twitter, keeps telling you "sorry the code can't be sent to your phone "

Why do Nigerians like to get everything for free?
Same way you people hate paying taxes but want Nigeria to look like El dorado.

the problem is not paying, the problem is the subscription may be limited, as a Nigerian u may not be able to access twitter and pay for tweets with ur credit card, thats how u can't buy app on Google playstore with ur Nigerian debit card

Google playstore.. I tried to link my card to it the other day so I can pay for stuff on a certain app but I got a message that my bank(AccessBank) declined the linking, something like that.. I was planning to go and collect atm card for my uba account so that I can try it again.
So, it's a general something? Like you can't link/buy anything irrespective of the bank?

But you never remember this until Elon made the announcement? Lol.
The same way they mumusly supported Jonathan to privatise power sector. Today, no improvement in electricity supply but I'm paying 64 naira per unit as against 4 naira per unit back in the days

Very sad situation. Things like this are probably because of the dubious records of Nigerians globally. I'm sure South Africans don't experience things like this on Google playstore and PayPal.

Of all the points he raised in his post, this is the best way you could respond to him but look at your next post below ranting about one of the problems he mentioned in his post. Lol

rippa:

Twitter is better than Facebook sir.
It's a welcome development
Since useless govts like ours are forcing Twitter to start paying taxes, let them pay too for using it

Not in Nigeria, majority of Nigeria are on Facebook and will choose Facebook ahead of twitter. No way you have Facebook app or browser on your phone and you don't check your Facebook profile on daily basis. But twitter, even me that has its app rarely check it.
