Twitter Blue: Subscription for $2,99 pro month in the starting blocks
It has often been heard that Twitter is working on a paid subscription. This could soon be launched as Twitter Blue.
Jane Manchun Wong is known for revealing unreleased features in apps and services. Now she found out that we could soon see a paid subscription with additional features from Twitter. This will be called Twitter Blue and will initially cost $2,99 pro month to start. Wong writes here "for now", which suggests that this price could change in the future.
Twitter is calling their upcoming Subscription Service “Twitter Blue”, priced at $ 2.99 / month for now, including paid features like:

Twitter Blue will include “Collections” and the ability to opt out of tweets, according to Wong. The "Collections" can be thought of as a folder system for favorite postings. They should make it easier to find tweets at a later point in time. To revoke tweets, a button appears after posting, which disappears after a short time. A new post will not be posted if you press this button in time. Wong also writes that other subscription options with additional goodies could come at a higher price in the future. As a specific example, it is stated that the timeline could be ad-free with a certain subscription.
All in all, it sounds very exciting. When Twitter will present these changes is currently unclear.
