Need to know more? Let's throw it back to our #CommonThread longform piece where we did a deep dive on our approach to bots https://t.co/IT2ZMsFApQ — PolitiTweet.org

Get your bots in here! Remember when we chatted about all things, #GoodBots? Well now we are celebrating the bots who make a positive contribution to Twitter, all over the world. https://t.co/e1OqJjRZiG — PolitiTweet.org

Remember when we began testing a new feature called Safety Mode? After months of feedback from beta users, we’re excited to expand this to some of you in several new English-speaking markets to gain more feedback and insights. https://t.co/AqVOUwyNQv — PolitiTweet.org

While we’re celebrating #SaferInternetDay , join us to find out how @Twitter is working to make the platform safer & learn about our new reporting process! https://t.co/FS7RLyiIFA — PolitiTweet.org

We know we don’t have it all figured out but we’re committed to being transparent about the work we're doing to tackle some of the most difficult issues folks face online. Follow us to stay in the know! — PolitiTweet.org

If the vibes are feeling off, you can toggle into Safety Mode (which we're now testing on some accounts) to temporarily safeguard you from spammy replies. https://t.co/P3PrUR0gQO — PolitiTweet.org

We’re also testing a new reporting process to make it easier to report unhealthy and unwanted content. Learn all about our human-first approach here: https://t.co/9gTYTD3vVs — PolitiTweet.org

Last week we shared a feature we're working on to prompt people to reconsider replies containing harmful language. Our research shows that people deleted or changed Tweets over 30% of the time after seeing these prompts. 17% changed them to less harmful or offensive content. https://t.co/7PyAIdG35Q — PolitiTweet.org

It's #SaferInternetDay! What's that? A day where we come together to try to make this place a little better for all of us. Here are some ways Twitter is working on it 👇 https://t.co/WG8W4dPhXS — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter doesn't send you push notifications for DMs from people you don’t follow and as usual, accounts you’ve blocked cannot DM you. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

1. You’re in control & can choose to not accept DMs from anyone you don’t follow from your settings. 2. Twitter filters potentially graphic media & spam. 3. You can report DMs by tapping & holding the message on mobile, or clicking the 3 dots next to the message on web. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

Let’s talk DMs. Now would be a good time for a quick refresher on who can actually DM you and what actions you can take against the messages you don’t want to receive. 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, people who have tested downvoting agree it improves the quality of conversations on Twitter. We're excited to see how others think of it as it becomes available to more of you. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

This experiment also revealed that downvoting is the most frequently used way for people to flag content they don't want to see. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

A majority of our users shared that the reason they clicked the down arrow was either because the reply was perceived as offensive, or because they perceived it as not relevant, or both. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

We've been testing how we can surface the most relevant replies within Tweets with the use of downvoting on replies. As we're expanding the experiment to a global audience, we want to share a little about what we have learned thus far! 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

@TwitterSeguro Sorry about that, the correct handle is @TwitterSeguroBR (proof that even we don't have an edit button). — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we’re introducing the feature as an experiment in Portuguese for users in Brazil! Follow @TwitterSeguro for more information. 🇧🇷 — PolitiTweet.org

We hope this research will serve as the foundation for how we can improve Twitter for everyone while encouraging others outside of Twitter to learn from this research and explore ways to promote healthier conversations online. — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve been working on a new feature that prompts users to reconsider Tweet replies containing harmful language. After seeing that users changed or deleted their replies over 30% of the time when prompted, we published new research on this new approach. https://t.co/tLDb294MoK https://t.co/qIInSzPPMA — PolitiTweet.org

Last month we tested a new option to add one-time warnings to photos & videos you Tweet out if they contain sensitive content. This option is now available to all global users on web and Android, and today it’s also available to some of you on iOS. — PolitiTweet.org

@slpng_giants @Twitter You’re right, we haven’t nailed it yet, but this is exactly why we’re working on things like Safety Mode. So far our Beta has only been open to individuals, but we hope to roll it out to orgs soon (because we know it’s people who run org accounts, too). https://t.co/ul8gsDMVIg — PolitiTweet.org

You should feel safe & in control of your experience on Twitter, while being able to trust the content you see, and there’s no trust without transparency. Here's an update to our Transparency Center spelling out how we’ve been enforcing our rules: https://t.co/neId4VlHLq — PolitiTweet.org

No clearance with legal on Peacemaker’s “Simp Mode” suggestion just yet, but we’ve got Safety Mode in beta to hold you over. https://t.co/OCitoFdOII — PolitiTweet.org

Allowing @DCPeacemaker to join our team meetings to pitch his ideas has been. . . well. . . Anyway, good news is we’ve already made a way to remove followers (or, you know, soft-block ‘em). https://t.co/mFPhb5EouO — PolitiTweet.org
