Several Twitter users have come forward claiming that their direct message (DM) settings were modified without their knowledge, resulting in receiving message requests solely from verified followers. This alleged change has raised concerns among users who value their control over who can send them personal messages on the platform.

Controlling DM Settings on Twitter

Twitter users have the option to manage their DM settings according to their preferences. They can choose to receive DM requests only from individuals they follow, only from verified users, or from everyone. You can access and adjust these settings through the ‘Privacy and Safety’ menu under the ‘Settings & Privacy’ section on the platform.

Elon Musk Admits Financial Challenges for Twitter

Over the weekend, Twitter’s owner, Elon Musk, openly acknowledged that the social media platform is currently facing financial challenges. The platform has reportedly experienced a significant drop in advertising revenue, losing about half of its advertising earnings. Since Musk’s takeover of Twitter in 2022, he has been focusing on monetizing features that were once free for users.

Musk Vows to Speak Freely Despite Financial Implications

Elon Musk has made it clear that he will continue to speak his mind on Twitter. He acknowledges the financial challenges this may bring. However, he remains committed to expressing his thoughts and opinions candidly. Even if it means potential losses in advertising revenue for the platform. Musk’s approach to using the platform has been well-known for its openness and fearlessness.
