How long has Twitter been hiding replies? I've been hearing about it but I've never seen an actual example aside from the usual verified bullshit. A friend of mine can only see one of these 5 replies when signed in.

Keep in mind these are all """problematic""" users, including myself.

What' I'm seeing is that literally nobodies are getting the verified mark and letting those tweets first in the twitter feed... Yeah, they are censoring ones and promoting the ones verified who follow their narrative
>>
A month or two ago they said they improved the algorithm that displayed replies. There's a way to turn it off in settings but I don't think it works completely. Ever notice how Donald Trump has millions of followers but the replies are always negative and always from the same handful of media insiders?

I've turned off any settings that talk about "tailoring experience" or "show me the best tweets" They put verified users at the top, that's nothing new and there are no settings for sorting replies which is just as good as hiding them of course.

This is about hiding replies completely. That's what I'm interested in, especially in such a benign tweet. Can you see all five when you're signed in?

Imagine how brutally efficient and terrifying twitter censorship game could be with someone competent running it.

Progressivism has a self defeating element because it promotes the weakest and most vulnerable over the shrewdly competent. Theres little blessings like that built into the structure of the universe.
>>
Oh no, another conspiracy against Trump? What is this, number 25 now? A really cozy safe space you're creating there

Look at this dumb shill, stupidly picked hill4america as user ID. Tweets nothing but political shilling 24/7

This is so fucking annoying.
I cant imagine what stupid assholes work there at twitter.

I want a giant outrage against this and a lot of these whoresons fired.

Thats discrimination.
Someone should create a fake incident where a girl tried to call help over twitter and they hid her tweet.

It's only a matter of time my friends. Only a matter of time. We're going to open Twitter up.

Why aren't shareholders filing lawsuits against Jack? Twitter is a public company, hes an employee that is supposed to be working to maximize value for shareholders.

There is a grace period. They want to see if he is either fired or turns the company around. He has already played his last ace by reupping shares. This was his last chance. He will be removed by the board of directors soon.

Twitters best way to monetize their platform aside from taking money from governments to censor certain things.

Think like CNN runs bad stories until be check clears then its good story time.

WaPo gets high 9 figures from CIA to run narratives. Thats way more than subscribers would come up with.

I'll be honest I fantasize about an open twitter. I left a long time ago because of their bullshit. I do kind of miss it. But every time I get around to thinking how I would make it, I just re-invent 4chan.

It will be real soon. The petition is going to pass.
