- Keep it simple. Stop trying to be Facebook and Snapchat and Youtube all at once.
- Better AI / search to enable/improve things like custom timelines and notifications.
- Optional paid accounts with appropriate benefits. Keep the cost low and don't penalize unpaid accounts.
I would add a feature that is similar to goole+ circles: allow the user to view the tweets of a subset of sources. I think it makes sense for twitter: one circle for each interest/ point of view.
I think Twitter has always been a completely ridiculous service and it's a poster child for this misguided iteration of Internet companies. If we just get enough users, we HAVE to make a profit! Turns out that isn't the case. The only thing I've seen Twitter accomplish is poisoning our collective consciousness with false information and a bad model of reality provided by an unsustainable system.
I want twitter to be a feed of thoughts an opinions from people I respect, or important updates from companies I'm interested in.
I see a secondary value from twitter by people contributing to a conversation around an event, be that a sports game, a site outage, a traffic jam or an unfolding natural disaster.
Filtering out / systemically discouragingly a lot of the countless low-value/self promotional posts alongside a better hashtag (channel) view would be a great start.
They can continue doing what they're doing already: - Suspending accounts for no reason at all. - Shadow banning users by hiding their replies (they refer to certain users as "low quality"). - Aggressive censorship of alternative opinions.
I feel like you're probably including instances of harassment here, which is generally unfair.
As it stands now, I deleted Twitter simply because it's nothing but corporate accounts, overly aggressive SJWs posturing over every damn thing, and the only content I actually cared about was reposted from Instagram (apart from a few people I know who live streamed, but have since switched platforms). So now I only use Instagram.
Add a feature that allows users to censor their feeds / remove @replies from "trolls".
