Twitter is now planning to expand that warning functionality to when you try to like a labeled Tweet. The functionality is rolling out on the web and iOS globally this week, and it will come to Android in the coming weeks.
Twitter added a warning decreased quote tweets of misleading information by 29 percent. It seems Twitter is hoping this new warning will reduce the amount of likes on labeled content.
We’re expanding the tweets to show when you tap to like a labeled Tweet. The prompts helped decrease quote tweets of misleading information by 29 %.
When users try to share a retweet, Twitter will open a window to compose a quote Tweet. You do n’t have to write anything, and you can still post a standard retweet.
Twitter last said the warnings before retweets of labeled tweets will be in place until’at least’ at the end of election week in the US. I’m still seeing the restrictions in place, nearly three weeks since election day.
