Twitter’s New ‘Hide Replies’ Improvement

Twitter Improves ‘Hide Replies’ Feature for User Control SAN FRANCISCO, May 15, 2023 – Twitter announced upgrades to its ‘Hide Replies’ tool. This feature helps users manage conversations on their tweets. The changes give people more power over discussions. They also aim to make talks more respectful. The ‘Hide Replies’ option started in 2019. It lets users hide replies they find unhelpful or rude. Hidden replies are not erased. They move behind a small icon. Others can still see them by clicking the icon. The owner of the tweet controls the talk. Now Twitter made the tool better. Hiding replies is easier. Users reach the option faster. They can hide many replies together. This helps accounts with lots of replies. It saves time. Twitter added new choices too. When hiding a reply, users can tell the author. They can write a short reason why. This step is not required. It makes things clearer. The person knows why their reply was hidden. Twitter thinks these updates matter. Users guide their talks better. They lower bad replies. The platform feels safer. Twitter tried the changes in some countries. Tests happened in Canada, Japan, and the United States. Results were good. Users felt stronger. They had less worry. The better feature is out now everywhere. All users on phones and computers can use it. Twitter wants people to test the new choices. The company keeps building safety tools. More features will come later.
