Elon Musk's social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, announced on Friday that it will soon limit the ability to livestream, including going live from an encoder, to Premium subscribers only. This change makes X the first major social platform to charge for live streaming, a feature that was previously free. The move follows a series of updates where X has locked some features, such as editing posts and sharing long-form content, behind a paywall. Users who wish to continue live streaming will need to upgrade to X Premium.
