'Can't even see my own tweets': Twitter users despair over Elon Musk's decision to limit views

From: Business Insider

In his latest Twitter shake-up, Elon Musk has decided to temporarily control how many tweets users can read each day.

On Saturday, Musk announced the daily limit, with some accounts restricted to 300 posts.

Musk said verified users would be able to read 6,000 posts per day, while unverified and newly created unverified accounts would only be able to read either 600 or 300 posts per day.

The decision sparked backlash and within hours the billionaire said he had extended the limits to 10,000 for verified users, 1,000 for unverified users, and 500 for newly unverified users. 

On Friday, Musk also changed Twitter's rules to stop unregistered users from viewing tweets without signing up. He said the move was part of "drastic and immediate" action to restrict access to tweets because AI companies were stealing Twitter's data. 

Despite Musk insisting the restrictions are temporary, some users have been confused and irritated by the sudden change of rules.

"How on earth did I already use up all my rate limits," Rawsalerts, a media account, tweeted, along with a screenshot of the account's limited timeline. "Now I can't even see my own tweets what is happening."

YouTube star MrBeast also chimed in on the drama: "I hit my tweet viewing limit for the day. Wtf do I do with my life now."

"It is time I just quit Twitter at this point," Matt Navarra, a social-media expert, posted in response to another user complaining they couldn't access his content. 

Others took to joking about the new restrictions. One user poked fun at the risk the policy might reduce views: "Babe no your tweet's a banger! Everyone just exceeded their rate limit before they saw it! Babe trust me!"

Another joked about their attempts to slow down their scrolling, posting a meme with the text: "Me trying to not scroll fast and waste my 600 tweet limit."

Musk also appeared to try and join in the fun, retweeting a parody account of himself that said the view limit was an attempt to make Twitter addicts "go outside." 

Representatives for Twitter did not respond to Insider's request for comment with a message that addressed the question.

From: Business Insider

In his latest Twitter shake-up, Elon Musk has decided to temporarily control how many tweets users can read each day.

在最近的一次推特（Twitter）调整中，埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）决定暂时限制用户每天可以浏览的推文数量。

shake-up /ˈʃeɪk.ʌp/ 表示“调整，改组”，英文解释为“a large change in the way something is organized”举个🌰：The company is undergoing a radical shake-up. 公司正在进行彻底改组。

tweet作名词，表示“发布在推特上的信息”，其实指的就是“推文”，英文解释为“a short remark or piece of information published on Twitter”；作动词，指的就是“发推文，发推特”（to publish a short remark or piece of information on Twitter），retweet就是转发推文，举个🌰：He tweeted that he was just about to meet the president. 他发推特说自己即将见到总统。

On Saturday, Musk announced the daily limit, with some accounts restricted to 300 posts.

上周六，马斯克宣布了每日限额，部分账户每天只能阅读300条推文。

马斯克表示，已认证用户每天可以阅读6000条推文，而未认证以及新创建的未认证账号每天只能阅读600条或300条推文。

The decision sparked backlash and within hours the billionaire said he had extended the limits to 10,000 for verified users, 1,000 for unverified users, and 500 for newly unverified users.

这一决定引发了强烈反对。几小时后，这位亿万富翁表示，他已将限制提高到已认证用户每天可阅读10000条推文，未认证用户1000条，新的未认证用户500条。

YouTube红人MrBeast也在这场闹剧中发声：“我今天浏览推文数量已经达到了上限。我TM现在该怎么办。”

“看来是时候离开推特了，”社交媒体专家马特·纳瓦拉（Matt Navarra）在回复另一位用户抱怨无法浏览他的内容时发表了这个观点。

Others took to joking about the new restrictions. One user poked fun at the risk the policy might reduce views: "Babe no your tweet's a banger! Everyone just exceeded their rate limit before they saw it! Babe trust me!"

还有人则拿新限制开玩笑。一位用户调侃这项政策可能会减少浏览量：“宝贝，不是的，你的推文可火了！每个人在刷到你的推文前就超过了他们的阅读上限！宝贝，相信我！”

📍banger在这个语境中，是英语俚语，主要用于形容一些特别受欢迎，特别成功或者特别精彩的事物。它最初用于形容一首热门的或者特别棒的歌曲，就像我们说的“热单”或者“神曲”那样。但是随着时间的推移，banger的使用范围扩大了，现在可以用来形容任何人们认为很棒的事物，比如一则推特，一场派对，一部电影，一道菜等。举个🌰：Did you hear that new song by the band? It's a real banger! 你听到那个乐队的新歌了吗？真是一首神曲！

另一位用户开玩笑说他们试图放慢滚动速度，并发布了一个表情包，上面写着：“我试图慢慢滚动，以免浪费我的600条推文限额。”

表示“滚动；滚屏”，英文解释为“to move text or other information on a computer screen in order to see a different part of it”举个🌰：Scroll to the end of the document. 滚动至文件的最后。

🎬电影《兔子洞》（Rabbit Hole）中的台词提到：Scroll down with your finger. 用手指向下滑动。

meme (/ˈmiːm/ )是指在同一个文化氛围中，人与人之间传播的思想、行为或者风格，音译为媒母、米姆、谜米、弥母，又名模因、拟子等。

其实「meme」指的就是在网上迅速传播，流行起来的一些概念（或图像、视频等）等东西，可以直接解释成我们常说「梗」、「段子」、「表情包」，词典中定义为：a type of behaviour that is passed from one member of a group to another, not in the genesbut by another means such as people copying it；举个🌰：Take a look at the top ten internet memes for this past year. 看一下去年互联网上的十大梗。

Musk also appeared to try and join in the fun, retweeting a parody account of himself that said the view limit was an attempt to make Twitter addicts "go outside."

马斯克似乎也试图加入其中，他转发了一个恶搞自己的账号的推文，称限制浏览推文是为了让推特上瘾者“走出去”。

parody /ˈpær.ə.di/ 1）表示“滑稽模仿作品（指文章、音乐、艺术品、讲话等）”，英文解释为“writing, music, art, speech, etc. that intentionally copies the style of someone famous or copies a particular situation, making the features or qualities of the original more noticeable in a way that is humorous”举个🌰：He was an 18th-century author who wrote parodies of other people's works. 他是一位18世纪的作家，专对他人的作品进行滑稽模仿。
