Despite Twitter announcing that ‘legacy’ blue checkmarks would be removed from April 1st, it seems that not many have disappeared as yet.
Some have, but reports have suggested that the actual process of removing blue ticks will take time, as it’s quite possible that the Twitter team will have to remove them manually, one-by-one. But in the meantime, Twitter’s come up with another way to democratize the blue tick.
Over the weekend, Twitter updated the wording of the pop-up that appears when you click on a checkmark in the app, which now makes it impossible to tell whether an account is paying for Twitter Blue, or is a legacy verified account.
