Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens, Salmon and New Friends of soft Media 1933769 for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, July 22 (Xinhua)-- Twitter announced today that it will formally limit the number of direct messages (DM, similar to domestic private messages) sent daily by unverified (non-Twitter Blue) accounts, in what officials say is to reduce the amount of spam generated.

According to tests by Twitter users, unpaid users can currently send only 20 private messages a day, and when they try to send private messages No. 21, the system will prompt "cannot send, click to perform other actions."

However, Twitter also prompts users to "subscribe to the Twitter Blue service and send more messages immediately," which netizens see as more of a way to attract users to pay than a mitigation measure for spam.

CTOnews.com has previously reported that Twitter has adjusted its restrictions on private messages for unpaid users several times since June, and Musk and Twitter officials have always stressed that the move is to reduce spam. At the same time, Twitter also limited the number of daily tweets viewed by non-paying users in early July, initially from 600 to 1000, which Twitter explained as an anti-crawling measure.
