Musk's platform is pushing MrBeast's first video upload in users' feeds as an unlabeled ad.

Mr Beast was already annoying. He was doing nice things for folks so I let it go but if he joins with Twitter on this I will lose any respect I did have for him

It doesn't seem like a platform that will do him many favors, unless it starts developing features he's using on YouTube. His YT videos have multi-audio support so they can be watched in different languages, and I'm pretty sure X is single audio and also more compressed.

If it does pan out, at least the money will go into videos/helping others.
