X caps unverified users at 50 posts per day

X has also introduced limits to daily follows and replies.

X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, has placed new limits on how many posts its unverified users can make on a daily basis. The company says that these limits will help alleviate stress on its backend.

X published a new page to its Platform Use Guidelines to detail the new limits. Unverified users are now capped at 50 posts, 200 replies, 500 DMs, and 400 follows on a daily basis. When users hit these limits, they’ll be notified in an error message.

The company states that these new limits will “alleviate some of the strain on the behind-the-scenes part of X and reduce downtime and error pages.”

The limits don’t apply to verified accounts. Verification is granted to users who subscribe to X Premium. To read about the many changes X has seen under the ownership of Elon Musk, stay here on Shacknews.
