The only point of this is to protect rich blue checkmarks from any criticism.

In the name of keeping everyone safe, i guess this is a good option.

My Twitter Safety Mode has been around for a long time. It is don't use Twitter.

Alright, awesome, let’s play this game then: I wish for this at an even larger scale.
We as users receive repetitive incessant harassment levels of invitations to use Twitter, Snapchat, TikTok, etc no matter where we go. I’m utterly tired of that damn painted water droplet TikTok YouTube ad. They get better and better to circumvent adblockers and the mobile app is just a lost cause.

If I skip an ad three times it should be considered abuse and harassment and banned from being shown ever again on any webpage, service, app etc. Put the cross web user tracking magic that’s already active to good use if they will.

Three strikes, and your out.....
Whatever happens there will be always those that mistakenly do it, can never solve that problem. User issue

I’ve found a better way to avoid unwanted messages on Twitter: you can tap and hold the icon until it jiggles, then select “Remove App.”

The various social media companies must have worked with Apple for a consistent user experience on this feature: it also worked exactly the same for Facebook and Instagram.

There is a minority group who's mind cannot be changed. They call everyone else sheep. Without realizing they are sheep. Just in a different flock.

s now the time to say "Flock You"?
