Is this ad the right one? First mentioned on April 1, the end of Twitter certifications before the Musk era should be well on the record by April 20. Users of the social network initially expected a moment of respite in the absence of changes in the accounts of certified users. But it seems that Twitter needed a few days to catch up.
Elon Musk thus indicated on his Twitter account that April 20 would be the “final date for the removal of classic Twitter certifications.”

From now on, users who want to benefit from the famous blue tick will have to pay a few euros. Issued at around 10 euros per month, this tick is accompanied by the most global subscription to Twitter Blue, which allows, among other things, to edit one’s own tweets and have access to more functions than traditional users.
In recent days, it had become difficult to discern which accounts were certified by notoriety or by payment. Starting April 20, things will be simpler: all accounts with a blue check mark will be Twitter Blue followers. For companies and media, a gold mark is already displayed next to the names. Gray checkmarks have also appeared and refer to politicians and government-affiliated accounts.
