Twitter may allow users to "change who can reply" to their tweets


Twitter may work on a feature that allows users to decide who can reply to their tweets after they are posted. It is still unclear how exactly the feature will work or when it will be rolled out to the general public because the company has not made an official announcement yet. Notably, Twitter is also working on introducing a Super Follows function that will help creators charge their followers and provide them with additional content. The features were spotted by reverse engineering expert Jane Manchun Wong.


Wong tweeted on June 5 that the platform plans to introduce a feature called "Change who can reply." This will allow users to select the specific people who can interact with the Tweet after it has been posted. In addition, the user may also have the option to not allow anyone to reply to his tweet. The feature is currently under testing.


A few users have expressed concerns about Wong's tweet regarding the new feature being tested by Twitter. One user (wichern) was concerned about more bubbles being formed on the social media platform, while another user (itscameronbloom) asked if this feature would delete all replies previously made or just stop new replies.


Notably, Wong has also shared that Twitter is working on introducing the Super Follows feature. This feature will allow users to charge their followers and organize their own additional content. Wong also states that users must be at least 18 years old, have more than 10,000 followers and have posted at least 25 tweets in the past 30 days. The reverse engineering expert has also discovered a huge list of content categories that Super Follows users can choose to describe their content.


Finally, Twitter is also introducing a "Safe Mode" that will allow users to "automatically block accounts for 7 days that may use malicious language or send repeated, uninvited replies." The feature also indicates that accounts that follow the user or accounts that the user interacts with most often will not be automatically blocked.
