Now, is the time to jump over to LeoThreads and start anew.
Welcome to the era of rate limits on social media...
Elon Musk might think what he is doing is cute or even a cost-cutting move, but the reality is that it is limits interaction and use. It encourages flooding the zone with junk posts to ensure that people cannot get to important posts. "For You" pages and posts of those you follow can filled with junk, but they count as posts read - even as you scroll. Reading replies to a post counts toward the rate limit.
It gets stranger as it seems Elon Musk is making things up as it goes. Treating a social media platform that is supposed to encourage people to be hooked on the platform and more susceptible to advertising on the platform to limits is a radical shift. Even those paying $8 a month (an arbitrary figure when proposed) for a verified account (a checkmark) are rate limited.

These rate limits may put Twitter's status as a mere social media firm that hosts user-created content into jeopardy as the rate limits are more consistent with how telecommunications firms operate. Telecommunications firms are subject to various regulations that are far more stringent than a social media company like Twitter or Meta. Given the "town square" and importance of news dissemination that emanates from Twitter, it is behaving more like a public utility and that is a threat to their business as politicians and regulators may wish to get involved.
