On the Twitter platform, reporting abusive and inappropriate content is relatively tedious. Good news for users of the social network, this will soon be changed.
Misinformation, harassment, hate speech… Unfortunately, social networks do not always allow us to escape reality and are therefore faced with the same problems. To remedy this, Twitter has decided to step up a gear by upgrading its tweet reporting system.
Twitter: reporting a tweet will now be easier
Until now, when reporting a tweet, the user was required to determine precisely which rule had been violated. But, last December, the social network began to set up an initiative aimed at changing the situation on this subject.
titled ” human first », this approach consists, as its name suggests, in putting the human being in the foreground. In fact, the platform will now ask you to specify what your problem is, and Twitter will then take care of determining which rule has been broken. With this method, the idea is to remove from the individual the burden of encouraging him to interpret for himself what violation it is.
As the media reports 9to5Machere’s what a data scientist on the healthcare user experience team said: This method is called symptoms-first, where Twitter first asks the person what’s going on. Here’s the analogy the team uses: Let’s say you’re in the middle of a medical emergency. If you break your leg, the doctor doesn’t say, “Is your leg broken?” They say, “Where does it hurt?” The idea is to first try to find out what’s going on instead of asking you to diagnose the problem.. »
So this is logical reasoning and a welcome initiative from the Twitter teams. This new tweet reporting system, which should offer more simplicity, is currently being rolled out in most countries, whether on iOS, Android or the Web.
