Comment on EU says X’s paid-for blue check deceives users, breaks law • The Register

A simple fix to make it more transparent : replace the blue check by a 🪙 or 💵. Now, the blue check just represent paid users.

If they made that, they could also make it so one can pay 10x more for each additional icon.

So 10e for one, 100e for two, 1000e for three and so on.

This would allow us to recognise all people seeking attention by flashing money very easily. Bonus points if we are able to filter feeds by number of icons.

How about adding a check mark to the money icon? I think that fits better.

Name 💵✅ or Name 💵✔️

As it to say, “has money”, or “spent money”.
