Twitter Is Testing Prompts That Warn You When A Conversation Has Bad Vibes

The company says the idea is to give people a heads-up if they’re about to join a conversation that’s “heated or intense,” which on Twitter could be anything from life-threatening health misinformation to guacamole recipes. Twitter says the goal, as it has stated before, is to foster “healthy conversation” on the platform.

The test labels appear under a tweet and display a little warning that “conversations like this can be intense.” To participate, it looks like you’ll need to click through a prompt encouraging users to be factual, open to diverse perspectives and reminding them of their shared humanity.
