Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, appears to have introduced stricter posting limits for users without paid verification, adding another reason for people to subscribe to X Premium. According to updated information on X’s Help Center and multiple user reports online, unverified accounts are now limited to 50 original posts and 200 replies per day. The change marks a dramatic reduction from the platform’s earlier limit of 2,400 posts per day, which was previously listed on the same support page. Interestingly, parts of the Help Center still reference the older 2,400-post limit, suggesting the rollout may still be incomplete or quietly updated.
