Priority handles will be free and “often include full names, multi-word phrases, or alphanumeric combinations.” Rare handles, on the other hand, will be a paid option, and “may be priced anywhere from $2,500 to over seven figures, depending on demand and uniqueness.”
Ok so if it’s a “high demand” handle then I guess they bend you over for it. Domains are like that too, but it isn’t exactly something to strive for.
But more importantly, if you ever downgrade your X subscription, your account will revert back to your original username, and you’ll lose access to the one you snagged through the marketplace.
I really hope someone pays 7 figures for one only to get fucked by this. I want to see it so badly.
… will they at least ask the account owners first…? I have many sleeper accounts. They are mine.
@TehPers @crandlecan In fact they aren’t yours. I guess that there are no legal restrictions to just take them away from you.
Wrong. It’s called Twitter.
It’s Xitter, pronounced as “sh”.
twitter is long gone, sorry
Do their emails finally no longer have “formerly twitter” in the title?
No. The fascist platform is called X.
Like the special man says:
Lettahaveeeeeem
Is… that a reference to Frankie and Johnny’s???
Um… Hello, fellow person who grew up in or around New Orleans in the 1990s. How are things? Where did you wind up after Katrina? I have no idea how to handle someone just randomly referencing commercials I had completely forgotten about.
