Twitter Tool Lets Users Filter Higher 'Quality' Tweets
Twitter is making a "quality filter" available to all users, allowing them to hide tweets that contain threats, appear to be automated or spammy.
The feature was previously only available to users with "verified" accounts, which are typically celebrities, public figures or journalists, and who can be identified by a blue checkmark next to the username.
The company said Thursday that the filter does not hide content from users that a person is following or has interacted with on Twitter.
Users will also have the ability to only see notifications from accounts they follow on the service.
