Twitter made a great job with the paid blue check. It's so much easier now to detect an idiot just by looking if they have a paid blue check. In Reddit it will be the same. If someone joins a paid sub, you can already say they are an idiot.
The best way to detect an idiot is seeing them on Twitter at all
Why do you think these people are idiots? I believe Twitter promotes content posted by paid users. Last time I was on Twitter (about a year ago), they were planing to exclude regular users from the "smart" feed. Plus, people could write longer posts instead of threads. Unlike with reddit gold, I see real benefits for content creators.
Personal experience. Every time I see an extremely stupid tweet, it comes from a blue check.
