6000 tweets is only for people with Twitter Blue, and it counts scrolling past a series of tweets on your timeline as reading them, so it's really easy to hit that limit even as a paying bootlicker.

For those of us sane enough to not spend any money on that godforsaken platform, it's only 600 tweets, which is disgustingly easy to hit. Scroll a little through your timeline, open a few tweets to read replies, and you've hit your limit in less than 30 minutes.

Sorry, your right it's 600 a day, but seriously I don't think that's a problem it's probably doing us a favour too.

I couldn't imagine spending 30 a day total on Twitter.

They want people to pay for the platform, this is how they're doing it.
