Elon Musk buys Twitter and reshapes it as X

馬斯克 (Elon Musk) 收購 Twitter 並將其重塑為 X

Markus published a tweet today, in which he praised the X app bought by Elon Musk in October 2022 when it was still called Twitter. Later, he started rebranding Twitter as X, adding various new features to it mainly to attract content makers by creating tools for them to make long posts and live videos.

馬庫斯今天發布了一條推文，其中他讚揚了 Elon Musk 在 2022 年 10 月購買的 X 應用程序，當時它還被稱為 Twitter。後來，他開始將 Twitter 重新命名為 X，添加各種新功能，主要是為了吸引內容製作者，為他們創建製作長貼文和直播影片的工具。

Among new content makers was Tucker Carlson, a famous US political commentator who used to run the Tucker Carlson Tonight show on Fox News. After his contract was terminated last year, Carlson began running his show on X.

新內容製作者之一是美國著名政治評論員塔克·卡爾森，他曾在福斯新聞頻​​道主持《塔克·卡爾森今夜秀》。去年合約終止後，卡爾森開始在 X 上主持他的節目。

Musk created a tool set to let content makers earn a living by posting via the Monetization and Subscription features. X under Musk also charges users for verification checks, which many were unhappy about. Musk personally pays for the blue checks of American classic horror writer Stephen King and Star Trek actor William Shatner, who refused to pay $8 per month and threatened to leave the platform.

馬斯克創建了一套工具，讓內容製作者透過貨幣化和訂閱功能發文謀生。馬斯克領導的 X 也向用戶收取驗證檢查費用，許多人對此表示不滿。馬斯克親自為美國經典恐怖作家史蒂芬金和《星際爭霸戰》演員威廉夏特納支付藍色支票，後者拒絕每月支付 8 美元，並威脅要離開該平台。

Dogecoin co-founder Markus is one of those creators who receive monthly payouts for adverts placed next to their posts with big comment threads – this is how the Monetization feature works. But he also has subscribers who pay him monthly a few dollars each.

狗狗幣聯合創始人馬庫斯是那些每月透過在貼文旁邊放置帶有大評論的廣告獲得報酬的創作者之一——這就是貨幣化功能的工作原理。但他也有訂閱者，每個月向他支付幾美元。

DOGE founder daydreams about X metaverse

DOGE創始人對X元宇宙的白日夢

Under his root tweet, Markus tweeted that should X build a metaverse “we can virtually go to war with meta’s metaverse.” Meta’s founder Mark Zuckerberg is not favored on X, since Zuckerberg has copied Twitter threads in his recently launched app Threads.

在他的根推文中，Markus 發推文稱，如果 X 構建一個元宇宙，“我們實際上可以與元的元宇宙開戰。” Meta 的創始人 Mark Zuckerberg 在 X 上不受青睞，因為祖克柏在他最近推出的應用程式 Threads 中複製了 Twitter 線程。

𝕏 should make a metaverse that we can virtually go to war with meta’s metaverse

𝕏 應該創造一個元宇宙，我們其實可以與元宇宙開戰

Elon Musk did not sue him but offered a cage fight. First, several dates and locations were agreed on by both but later Zuckerberg quietly backtracked from this.

伊隆馬斯克沒有起訴他，而是提出了一場籠鬥。首先，雙方商定了幾個日期和地點，但後來祖克柏悄悄收回了這一點。
