Elon Musk, who grew unhappy that his tweets were generating less engagement, ordered his engineers to carve out a special category of “power users.”
Twitter has a list of some three dozen “VIP users” that includes Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , basketball superstar LeBron James, and Daily Wire founder Ben Shapiro, according to a report.
Twitter engineers reportedly obeyed their boss’ directive to tweak the system algorithm so that his posts remain more visible than other users, according to Platformer. “For You” is the Twitter feed powered by an algorithm that is programmed to offer posts from accounts that users normally follow as well as recommended tweets.Getty ImagesBen Shapiro, the political commentator and Daily Wire podcaster, is also said to be on the VIP list.Musk on Monday announced that high-profile Twitter users who until now had a blue checkmark next to their name as a status symbol will have to pay up to $11 a month to keep it.
