The start of Elon Musk’s tenure as owner of Twitter has not been without its struggles and chaos. And so far, the chaos Twitter currently finds itself in shows no signs of letting up anytime soon.
So it seems fitting that the latest news on the Twitter front is that signups for the microblogging platform’s $8-per-month Twitter Blue subscription have reportedly been suspended. On Friday, Forbes reported that new signups for Twitter’s newly revamped Blue subscription have apparently been disabled, having “verified that users have not been able to sign up to the service for more than an hour,” and also citing that the option to sign up for Blue on the iOS app had disappeared as further proof of the suspension. The Verge also noted that some users may still see the option to subscribe, only to then be met with an error message. One of the editors at Digital Trends said the option to sign up for the service is just missing from his iOS app’s menu, noted that it had been like that “since at least 8 p.m. PT last night,” and shared the following screenshot:
