Quote Tweet With Reactions: Twitter’s New Feature Explained
Some recent reports have revealed that Twitter is striving hard to develop a feature allowing users to quote a Tweet with only a reaction. Here is everything you need to know.
The users of Twitter will soon become able to do something more than only to like the tweet or retweet it with comments. Twitter is working on to develop a new feature referred to as the new quote tweet that will be introduced with several reactions. Twitter is adding several modifications to its platform to enhance the user experience. The latest feature can be seen as a significant addition to the microblogging platform.
The social media giant Facebook began expanding its Like feature back in the year 2016. The social media giant provided its users to choose and react to the messages from a wide range of reactions. With the introduction of such a feature by Facebook, the social media sites become much more standard than ever before. For a long time, the standard social media practices involve Like, share and comment on the posts. But as long as people started using social media in more numbers, the users began feeling the need for some more features than only to like or comment on posts. For example, many users find that it is not appropriate to Like a post related to some of the negative incidents. Many users expressed their views that there should be features that can be used to show support to the posts associated with negative or sad incidents without adding a comment. So, almost every social media platform started adding expressing reactions such as sad, love, tearful face, etc. Different social media platforms added these reactions in the form of emojis that we often used in our comments.
Recently, Jane Manchun Wong has posted a Tweet and revealed that Twitter is doing everything to innovate the reactions. Ruther, He has discovered that the microblogging platform is experimenting with a wide range of responses. Twitter wished to introduce this new reaction feature to the users so they can respond to the Tweets using only a reaction. Also, the information tweeted by Jane Manchun Wong has been confirmed by the director product manager of Twitter. The director product manager of Twitter, Suzanne Xie, has said Twitter is testing a new feature to be further used by the people while quoting their tweets with attached emojis.
Will Twitter introduce the new feature?
While it is true that the coders at the company are exploring multiple options to look into the new feature, it does not mean Twitter will implement it. Reverse engineering visible in this reaction feature is something that often developers and coders use to look through the software to find new features. Also, Reverse engineering is good when it comes to showing the users regarding whatever original is the company currently working on or trying to figure out. However, it is always the final version of the feature of the product. There are several possibilities as the company may decide to add the reactions. It is also possible that the company will use new emojis to add the feature. There is also the possibility that the company may scrap it entirely to take a new and different approach.
Apart from these, it is also true that the microblogging and social networking platform has never taken an interest in talking about its innovations or design modifications. For example, in the initial days when Twitter was launched the users were retweeting each other by copying and pasting the exact text of the post. Later, the company introduced an integrated feature for retweeting and till the feature arrived on the platform no one exactly knew about it. However, it is very interesting to see how the company is exploring many new ways to make its platform much more interactive along with improving the user experience. So, even if the company is working on the new feature, it can’t be said when it will arrive.
