Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
Twitter imposed temporary daily limits on how many posts users can view — 6,000 for verified accounts, 600 for unverified and 300 for new unverified accounts — to combat data scraping, prompting user backlash and a surge in sign-ups on alternative platforms Bluesky and Mastodon. Elon Musk indicated the limits would soon be raised to 10,000, 1,000 and 500 posts respectively.
