This is coming a few months after Twitter joined other
platforms like Snapchat, Facebook, and Instagram on the ephemeral sharing train
as it introduced the “Fleet” feature to encourage more people especially new
users who hardly tweet, to express their thoughts more freely.
The upcoming features will include a payment feature, called
‘Super Follows‘ that will enable users to give their followers access to extra
content (like bonus tweets, newsletter subscription, or a badge) at a cost
price, and the ‘Communities‘ feature where people with similar interests can
create and join groups.
The Community feature is similar to Facebook groups and can
come in really handy for new Twitter subscribers as a lot of people find
navigating the platform a bit difficult.
The direct payment feature (Super Follows) has also been
successful on various social platforms including Facebook and YouTube as it
enables creators and publishers to get direct payment from their fans.
According to The Verge, Twitter will get a fraction of these
charges, although the exact amount or launch date is yet to be revealed.
