Perhaps because I’m not on a paid subscription, I either never hear from Twitter after a report or they reply along the lines of ”we found no issues with a photo of Hitler doing the Nazi salute in a thread concerning Jews”.

I flag most posts that I disagree with, don't understand, or simply don't like, and the success rate is hit-or-miss, but not in any kind of logical way, which just inspires me to cast as wide a net as possible. I call it stochastic decluttering.

  • I stay away from Twitter for my mental health, so I'm not well versed with their systems. Do you not have to select the reason you're flagging sometihing? Is flagging something that you don't understand or just don't like abusing their reporting system?

    • Personally, I always select the correct reason and it does not seem to help. I don’t think “disagree” is a valid reason, I report obvious misinformation/racial hate/threats/gore.
