I want to try the reply control feature on here, but I& #39;m concerned I& #39;ll like it too much and will want to use it on all my tweets
I saw a discussion thread going around that said "what makes you not reply to a tweet?" and it absolutely boggled my mind because replying is the engagement of last resort in my mind. I& #39;m clearly in the minority or we wouldn& #39;t need the reply control feature.
I try to make sure a reply adds to the conversation. If I type it out and it doesn& #39;t build on the existing discourse, I delete it and don& #39;t send it. Probably that instinct comes from the same place as my strong dislike of small talk.
Even with that instinct, I& #39;m sure I& #39;ve sent replies that the person I& #39;m replying to doesn& #39;t view as adding to the conversation. I try, but I can only know what I consider to be superfluous vs. not, I don& #39;t know that they will judge what I have to say the same way.
I& #39;m interested in how the reply control feature interacts with audience design, for both sides of the conversation. For example, if I ask a question and disable replies, I would assume that signals strongly to others that the question was rhetorical. https://twitter.com/gweezlouise/status/1297255305772859393">https://twitter.com/gweezloui...
