discussion Twitter removing block feature

[CBC]

Well this would be the thing to kick me off. YIKES.

Honestly, I never block people. And it's so annoying when random accounts block you without a good reason. But I also understand it's very important to have this feature in some specific scenarios, like actual harassment. 

Messy situation.

Twitter was interesting for like a couple of years until 2011-2012.

It was really a social network used to comment news, to read fast news and to comment some event.

 

After that it became a social network  founded on assaults and harassments. It's a terrible place, it's good it's dying.

Yes. The app is still very popular. Threads came and went. All the other Twitter killers are dead or no where near popular. People have an addiction. It’s the same reason why Facebook still isn’t dead. 

Threads is going to take over eventually, I feel like X/Twitter is going to become so user hostile that people are going to stop checking for it and popular people who aren't toxic are going to leave.

Threads needs to allow adult content.

Threads will not. The issue is it’s way too sanitized and lacks personality. People don’t like that, which is why Twitter keeps people hooked. The engagement on Threads is abysmal. It has high numbers, but it’s declining rapidly right now. It’s the same way YouTube tried to compete with TikTok with Shorts. Buts it’s usually videos reposted from TikTok and still not as popular as TikTok itself.

Why those twitter creators haven’t released blue sky to general public? They’re wasting time with all this lateness because gosh twitter is becoming unbearable

What’s gonna happen to all the block lists I’m subscribed to?

Now my black self can see posts from 'amazing' accounts such as 'Shaniqua posting Ls' and 'Anti-White Watch' and 'End Wokeness' and be able to do nothing about it.  All this is going to do is create more harassment for minority groups; apartheid clyde doesn't care, does he? 

Not as long as you keep using the app, he doesn't

The dumbest Elon decision yet

 

BTW it will end up getting removed from the App store if he does it, Apple requires social media apps to have a block feature

[naval23]

 

Not "Community Notes" dragging Elon about this omg 

[Alldeezy]

Can we still hide accounts so we don't have those people show up on our timeline?

 

Kinda wish this was a feature before I blocked the Allday troll bc I felt bad after doing it and 6 months later I'm still feeling guilty 

[Haschwalth]
