The world’s most popular microblogging application Twitter has started testing a new feature. This feature allows you to see how much a user posts on average per month. Some users included in the testing phase are able to view the average number of tweets per month when they enter other users’ profiles. But what good will this information do for us?
Twitter’s new feature in testing has a very simple logic. When a user’s account is entered, a new information section appears. In this section, which is right next to the total number of tweets, it is stated how many tweets the user has posted on average per month.
Here’s what the new feature on Twitter looks like
Above, we witness what the new feature Twitter is testing looks like. So why did Twitter develop such a feature? Here’s the answer to this question, given by a Twitter spokesperson. In the statements made, it was stated that this feature will allow users to get to know a person better before following them.
We can summarize the statement of the Twitter spokesperson as follows: Let’s say you follow an account, but it only posts a few times a month. In this case, you may think that account is not worth following. A similar situation is also valid for the opposite. Let’s say you follow an account but it sends thousands of tweets every month. You can understand that this account is a bot or a troll and unfollow.
It is currently unknown when the feature will be available to all users.
