The digital landscape is abuzz with the latest news about X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. The platform has recently rolled out a feature that allows non-premium subscribers to make and receive audio and video calls. 

 

X introduced this feature last year, initially limiting it to premium subscribers. However, in a move that broadens its user base’s communication capabilities, X has now made this feature available to all users. This expansion of services is seen as a significant step in enhancing the platform’s functionality, bringing it on par with other popular communication apps like FaceTime and WhatsApp.

 

The decision to roll out this feature to non-premium subscribers, revealed in a tweet reposted by X’s CEO Linda Yaccarino, comes as part of X’s continuous efforts to enhance user experience and engagement. Despite some initial controversy, the platform has ensured that users can control who can call them or even turn off the calling feature.

 

 

The question now is, how will this new feature impact the way users interact on X? Will it lead to a shift in the platform’s dynamics, or will it simply be another feature among many? As X continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how these changes shape the future of social media communication.
