Twitter users can now quietly remove followers without blocking them

Among the many features that have been tested and released this year, Twitter now gives users the ability to control better those who follow their accounts without taking drastic steps or potentially attract unwanted attention. Going forward, all users now have access to the software block features start testing last month.

Twitter is mostly a public platform; While users can manage their profiles to personal, do greatly limiting how many people will see their content. Leaving a public account, however, allows anyone to see content, and the only way to prevent this from using a block tool.

It is a drastic step that has the potential to invite drama or other problems into a person’s life as a blocked person will quickly realize what happened. Twitter has launched a new option that is often called ‘soft block’ that allows users to secretly delete followers; It’s available on the web.

The deleted followers from the account will not receive notifications about it, even though in the end they can see that they no longer see tweets from the account in their news feed. This calm removal allows the person to continue reading your tweets, but they will also have manually pull your account every time or follow it.

Twitter first announced a test feature in early September, describing soft block tools as a curation feature. The new option to delete followers is found in the same menu where you can block or set up an account.
