On April 20th, Twitter removed the “Blue Tick” service, which previously was an indicator of the authenticity of an account. In the new regime of Elon Musk, the service is wholly rehauled. Now, instead of denoting the accounts of public figures and individuals connected with the government, the new blue tick will denote customers who are willing to pay the “Twitter Blue” subscription.

After this change was sanctioned and made public, many celebrities and renowned individuals opted to leave the platform for good. Even HBO’s The Last of Us star Bella Ramsey, recently announced his departure, after making her social media return only a few months ago. Following her abrupt leave, fans theorized, the new Twitter Blue policies may be the culprit.
