  I was fine paying $8/month for Tweetdeck. But for $40/month, the usefulness of Tweetdeck is no longer worth it. A bunch of stuff is constantly broken with it now anyway. Ridiculous.

  TweetDeck, then X Pro has been my interface to the Twitter/X every single day I sat down at the computer. I use it to monitor the latest technology news, trending topics etc. It's how I stay connected across a range of topics, including local ones in my area. One of the best [ima…

  Elon wants to charge $40/month or $395/year to use Tweetdeck. See ya ✌️

• @gasbuddyguy Patrick De Haan on x

  So @elonmusk you want us to spend less time on X since you're taking away the tools (tweetdeck) that made it easy to engage and post? yeah that's a terrific idea that definitely won't backfire.

• @ohlennart Lennart Heim on x

  Tweetdeck (now called X Pro) used to be free. Then you required X Premium, and now the Premium+ plan. Disappointing. It's hard to stay sane on social media and managed topic lists at least helped. @nikitabier (If you've not used it before, I'm sorry. I'd highly recommend it.) [im…

  Moving Tweetdeck to the $40/month tier is ridiculous and makes this place much less usable.

• @manniefabian @manniefabian on x

  Uh, so tweetdeck (X Pro) is now behind an even higher paywall? Wtf [image]

  The only reason I paid for premium on here was to use Tweetdeck. As of today, that's only available on the premium+ plan. Instead of $11 per month, $50 per month. For all you old In Living Color fans out there, I don't think so. Homie don't play that.

• @quaslacrimas Tantum on x

  Man, did twitter really just make X Pro (the old tweetdeck) available to Premium+ only? Twitter has made a lot of questionable product/UX decisions in the last year, and the availability of the X Pro UI was a safety valve limiting the damage to people who didn't like the changes.

  A surprising & frankly greedy move by @X @elonmusk Millions of users were told to pay for X Premium to keep using TweetDeck. Now X has pushed TweetDeck into Premium+, raising the cost >5× from $102 to $560 No doubt @X is going to face a lot of backlash for this decision.🤮🤮 [image…

  Twitter (X) has now made X Pro exclusive to Premium+ users • Now costs nearly $400 per year to use • Previously known as TweetDeck — which was free • Users were given no notice • Annual subscribers are being forced to upgrade mid-cycle [image]

  This is such a funny time to do this because all of my search columns have been broken for weeks

• @kevinobie1 Kevin Obermeyer on x

  As of today, you can't use X Pro (formerly TweetDeck) even at Premium. You have to pay for Premium+ for a huge amount more money and for services you may not even want or need. This platform continues to focus everything around the few highest paying voices. So frustrating.

• @themaxburns Max Burns on x

  X Pro is a great tool, but it isn't worth a roughly 400% price increase (to $40/mo) to keep using it. Since X Pro was the only thing keeping me on a paid subscription, it's great motivation to unsubscribe. Solid move, @elonmusk!

• @themaxburns Max Burns on x

  First Twitter moved X Pro behind the Twitter Premium paywall. Now they've moved it behind the Premium+ paywall. X Pro is basically the only useful thing about having a Twitter Premium membership.

  This is a very lame thing that just happened. [image]

  @monetization_x What we're launching in X in the next week or two will be much more powerful than XPro. We're only keeping XPro for people that absolutely need it for hyper-specific business workflows.
