About two and a half months ago, Twitter began testing a new method
to restrict the number of people who can respond to tweets, in an effort to
help users have conversations with only the people they want. A few days ago, the company launched an update for its application in
the iOS system that allows testing for more users. "In May, we tested a
new way to have a conversation with exactly whoever you want, so you can create
and consume more meaningful changes," the company said. "Now,
everyone can try this new feature and choose who can reply to their
tweets," she added.
Today, Twitter announced the end of the testing phase, and making the
feature available to all its users, whether through its application on Android
and iOS, or the web version of the service twitter.com.
To use this feature, the company explained that after creating the
tweet, an option at the bottom of the tweet allows the user to choose who can
respond to it, and there are three options: everyone, the people you follow,
and only the people mentioned in the tweet.
It is noteworthy that the company had said last January: This feature
will be launched for everyone later this year. Although the feature limits the
number of people who can respond to Tweets, it does allow everyone to see them.
The company will mark Tweets that the number of people who can respond to has
been restricted; So that users know earlier.
It is believed that the feature may help users determine who can
respond to Tweets to prevent abuse and harassment. By restricting responses to
a limited group of people, users can have deeper and more focused conversations
with people of their choice, without worrying about the trolls entering the
conversation.
