US Investor, A Twitter Blue Subscriber, Claims He's Losing 1,000 Followers A Day
NDTV
Mr Cuban, who joined Twitter in September 2008, still has a healthy 8.8 million followers on the platform.
Billionaire entrepreneur and investor Mark Cuban recently revealed that he is losing nearly 1,000 Twitter followers a day despite paying for a Twitter Blue subscription. He also shared in an interaction with CNBC that his tweets are reaching "considerably" fewer people than they did a few months ago. @elonmusk , question for you. I'm losing about 500 to 1k users a day. To counter this I went Blue² thinking it gave me some preference and would help retain or grow users. Any suggestions ? There were 100 ways @elonmusk could have asked legacy checks for $100. Egalitarianism was the worst of all of them. It's Diet Coke level. Let me give some examples https://t.co/zgYTQr76gF
He told CNBC, "I figured I was/am on some Twitter s--- list that doesn't show me to new or existing users as a possible follow," He added, "I thought maybe, by paying the annual contract, that would change. It didn't."
Although, Mr Cuban wouldn't care about the follower count, at the moment it matters as he is trying to spread the word about his online pharmacy.
In fact, last month he asked Twitter's new boss Elon Musk in a tweet for suggestions on how to retain or grow follower count. The tech billionaire has not responded.
