Article text does not support the title. Elon was clearly talking about moving from ad revenue to subscription revenue which already happened. Nothing about charging all users a fee

Is the switch complete when the implementation is done or when it actually replaces the lost ad revenue?

He has talked about it multiple times before, as mentioned. idk why Elon stans are always in such a rush to 'interpret' his remarks.

Where has he talked about this multiple times? The article cites "internal conversations".
According to internal conversations, I'm the lizard king.

Platformer is a much more reliable reporting outlet than you, and I'm not your personal research service.

I wonder when it's going to sink in that Twitter isn't a business.
