Twitter/X users can actually hide their blue checkmark if they don’t want people to know they paid for a subscription.
Twitter or X, whatever you might want to call it, is going through some issues with its identity. Now that the transition has happened, it is time to look forward and see what the future holds for the platform. Of course, with a new name comes a new change, and this change is in the form of giving users the option to hide their checkmarks.Don’t want people to know you paid for Twitter/X Blue? You can now hide the checkmark
Now, why would you want to hide it? Well, there was a time when the checkmark was coveted across the entire Twitter-verse. People with these checkmarks were trustworthy harbingers of truth (well, most of the time) until Elon Musk decided to buy the company and decided to make the blue checkmark part of the platform’s subscription. Now, all you have to do is subscribe to Twitter Blue or X Blue, and you will have your checkmark. People who had the legacy checkmarks ended up losing their checkmarks, and while some caved in and paid for the subscription, a lot of people, including me, no longer find it coveted.
