From paid blue ticks to new character limit, here's what can change on Twitter under Elon Musk

Since his takeover of Twitter, billionaire Elon Musk has confirmed several modifications to the microblogging platform.  Musk has already made changes to the homepage of Twitter and many big changes are about to come shortly. The ‘Chief Twit’ is also evaluating the content moderation and deplatforming policies and has decided to form a special committee. Here's a look at the changes that have been confirmed by Musk so far.

Within a day after closing his $44 billion acquisition deal of Twitter, Elon Musk decided to change the platform’s homepage.

As per his request, logged out users visiting Twitter.com will now be redirected to the Explore page that shows trending tweets and news stories, instead of a login page which encouraged user sign ups. Earlier, logged out or new users could only see a sign-up form on the homepage, encouraging the creation of an account to view tweets. Musk’s directive was implemented late Friday and it required VP involvement to override a code freeze put in place to prevent rogue staffers from making changes during the takeover process, the Verge reported.
